About this event
The calendar date is meaningful. The American Revolutionary War began on April 19, 1775 with the “shot heard ’round the world” in Massachusetts.
The date is also important for another reason. The current administration has been threatening to use the Insurrection Act of 1807 to declare martial law to shut down dissent and protest nationwide. Unconfirmed reports say they might announce it on April 20.
Know this; we will not cede power to the administration that they do not have.
Gather in front of City Hall from 2-4 pm for a peaceful protest of the current administration’s threat to invoke the Insurrection Act of 1807 on April 20th and set the US Military against peaceful protesters.
