Sisay Berta marched with his sisters Ephrata Berta and Bitania Berta. "I'm an immigrant. Most of the things he has said, it's against our interest. I've seen people acting differently since his campaign," Sisay said about President Donald Trump during the Women's March on Portland. Ephrata says the large crowd made her nervous at first, "But everybody started greeting me and they were nice.It makes me feel good that other people care about the same things that I care about. "
