Where: Pathways to Power AND Rally @ Boston Common—Proudly display your amazing signs, flags (no poles, please!), and your most creative protest attire as you make your way to Boston Common from 1-2 p.m. Let’s show the world what patriotism really looks like by filling the sidewalks. Consider getting off the T a few stops early to extend this visibility walk! 2-4 p.m. Rally @ Boston Common.

When: 1-4pm (1-2 Pathways to Power march, 2-4pm Boston Common)

Anyone have good sign ideas? I was considering just listing people murdered by ICE. Something I read claimed connecting potential dictators' actions with overthrowing democracy was a key, so maybe quoting Anne Frank or drawing comparisons to Stalin/Hitler.

I think what we just watched unfold in Minnesota demonstrates the power of peaceful, organized protest

what? ICE promising but not quite leaving after killing a few people, assaulting dozens and harassing thousands?...

I am not advocating for violence, but unless you at the very least consider holding these marches in the middle of the week when economic activity is hurt, you are just dancing for rain

I totally forgot how the ICE nazis got justice for their unlawful public executions. Yay peace and love!
