Sewing Circle: Protests on 3/1, 3/4, 3/7
Hi all,
I’m learning of more protests in and around the Boston area, often connected to national groups. Here are three coming up in the next two weeks:
Tesla Takedown / Protest Elon Musk
Saturday March 1, 10-12am
Tesla Service Center, 457 Pleasant Street, Watertown, MA
There are similar protests on the same day at Tesla centers in Boston (12pm start) and Dedham (11am start). Learn more at TeslaTakedown.
Tuesday March 4th, 4-6pm
Boston Common, Parkman Bandstand
50501, the same group that ran the February 17th protest (with over 2000 at the State House), is working on getting protests nationally on Tuesday, March 4th. The Massachusetts branch is planning one on the Common that evening.
Friday, March 7, 12-4pm
Boston Common across from the State House
Angry about the administration’s anti-science policies and cabinet members? Furious about the slashing of research across the nation? Stand Up! Details on the Boston Stand Up are here. The organizers ask that protesters not block traffic, stand in the street, or bring signs on sticks.
If you’re not local to Boston, all three groups (TeslaTakedown, 50501, and Stand Up for Science) have directories of events across the country. Keep making noise, whether it’s at a protest or on a call to your rep or in conversation with others, and remember: You are Not Alone.
