SUMMARY:Celebrate Your Independence: Rally & March
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate Your Independence: Rally & March \nWorcester City Hall (Front) | 12–2 PM | Friday\, July 4\, 2025 \nWorcester Indivisible invites you to celebrate independence YOUR way with us on the 4th of July from 12:00PM-2:00PM\, at Worcester City Hall on the very spot the Declaration of Independence was first read in New England. \nDECLARE YOUR TRUTHS TO BE SELF EVIDENT. \nWhether your version of freedom and independence revolves around women’s reproductive rights\, LGBTQ+ equality\, ICE and immigration\, Indigenous and First People rights to tribal land and sovereignty\, food insecurity\, housing affordability\, or racial justice and equality for all\, these are the fundamental principles the Declaration of Independence and the 4th of July are built on. Ignored\, dismissed and unlawfully obstructed by the current Trump administration\, it is to you\, the people of these United States\, that we must look to in order to make us whole and declare our sovereignty as a united people. \nWE THE PEOPLE DECLARE OUR INDEPENDENCE. \nPlease join us for a day of declaration\, celebrating our freedom of diversity and independence from a tyrannical administration by asserting the fundamental rights granted to us by both the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution. Let us declare our truths and rights to be self evident by making our voices heard and coming together as the diverse and united community we are\, can and should be. Come with your families\, wear your best 4th finery or regalia celebrating your individual expressions of independence\, to enjoy good food from local food trucks\, inspirational speakers\, music\, and tables with resources! \nA core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values. \n\n\n\nRSVP for Updates
