SUMMARY:Hands Of Beverly!
DESCRIPTION:This a local WEEKLY Indivisible event! A peaceful protest in opposition to all things Trump! The first protest was on February 17 and was followed by weekly standouts ever since. A lively crowd of typically between 100-250 people with great music in the background. We obtain weekly permits and have at least two of our own marshals present at all times. They are there to make sure we don’t block sidewalks\, bicycle lanes and parking spots. Also to keep us from walking into the street while the light is red. They can be identified by their yellow vests. \n\n\n\nRSVP\n\n\n\n\nA core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent tactics. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.

SUMMARY:Westford's 2nd Juneteenth Flag Raising & Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Mark your calendars for Westford’s 2nd Annual Juneteenth event and celebration. As we hoist the traditional Juneteenth flag\, we will be joined by representatives from the community to help us mark this occasion. This event marks an important statement about our town’s ongoing commitment to racial equity. \n\n\n\nImmediately after the flag raising – approximately 10:30am – we will head over to the Parish Center for the Arts where we will be treated to a spoken historical account of Lowell’s abolitionist legacy by UMass Lowell Professor Dr. Robert Forrant. He will explain the hidden connections between cotton plantations and the New England textile mills. Discover how Northern and Southern lives were intertwined — and how both oppression and courage shaped the road to freedom. \n\n\n\n\nGet Your Tickets
