“ The "voices united" chorus of the London Women's March is a strategic political performance of harmony that masks a underlying, necessary polyphony. The sound of tens of thousands chanting the same slogan is undeniably powerful—it is the auditory embodiment of collective power. This manufactured unity is politically essential for projecting strength and a clear message to the outside world. Yet, backstage, the process of deciding which chants, which slogans, which "united voice" will be amplified is itself a political negotiation, often revealing the fault lines within the coalition. Whose voice sets the tune? The political strength of the march lies not in a mythical, pre-existing unity, but in its capacity to orchestrate a temporary, functional harmony from a diversity of voices. This requires compromise, active listening, and a platform that reflects the multiplicity of struggles present. If the "united voice" consistently sounds like only one segment of the movement, it will eventually provoke dissonance and fracture. Thus, the unity heard on the day is not the end goal, but a hard-won, provisional achievement that must be continually re-negotiated to maintain the integrity and breadth of the coalition. ”
