[Rescheduled] Rally, Die-in & Dance Party for Mass. Climate Action Now!
This event has been rescheduled to Friday due to rain
For over a year, XR Boston has held a Stand-Out in front of the State House, urging our government to make the right move for our future, and commit to No New Fossil Fuel Infrastructure in Massachusetts. Despite this, our leaders have failed to listen to us. Despite a climate bill being on the table, our leaders have failed to pass it. So, it's time to get loud. Join us on Friday, September 27 at 5:30pm!
We'll start with a rally, with short speeches from XR and coalition partners. Why is this fight so important, how are we waging it, and how you can get involved!
We'll continue with a die-in, lying on the ground to die symbolically, representing the people and animals who will (and are) dying from avoidable ecological emergencies. If you've never participated in civil disobedience, this is an easy, accessible way to try it out! Remember to wear clothes suitable for lying on the ground.
We'll end with pizza and a dance party in front of the State House, making resistance fun again. We'll lead a simple warm-up exercise, then move into free form dancing. Don't worry about your moves, this is about having fun and embracing your free spirit!
Register to help us with planning and be informed of of any schedule changes. Rain date is Friday September 27!
This is a no-arrest-risk demonstration, perfect for new or seasoned activists.
*Come early for a free yoga session -- 5pm in the Common!
