Women's March 2019: A sense of civic engagement as demonstrators celebrate record number of women in Congress

The Women's March returned to Washington this Saturday. The original march in 2017, the day after President Donald Trump's inauguration, drew hundreds of thousands of people, and it's generally regarded as the largest Washington protest since the Vietnam era.

This year the turnout was significantly lower. Parallel marches also took place in dozens of other US cities.

Our correspondents Philip Crowther and Mathieu Mabin joined protesters in downtown Washington.
