This a local Indivisible event!
Join us on Saturdays 12pm-2pm to Stand Out and Up with your signs of protest and support. As a small and passionate community, this high visibility location is very impactful and fulfilling. Meet fellow citizens to join your voice in Solidarity and for Justice.
Hosted by: Hopkinton resident, a small and growing group of local and concerned Massachusetts citizens who live in Hopkinton and surrounding towns. Our mission is to build trust and relationships between local communities as we face the growing risks of:
Rising authoritarianism, bigotry and hate. The erosion of civil liberties – no due process. The worsening economy with fewer jobs. Climate change and health crisis.
Remember to bring water and hat It gets hot out here!
It’s best to park around The Common to then stand at the Spirit of the Boston Marathon Statue & Start Line, 93 East Main Street, Hopkinton.
Here are some important ground rules. We cannot disrupt traffic. Please stay out of the street, and always use crosswalks. This is a peaceful protest. If someone becomes aggressive towards one of us, we should all be ready to de-escalate the situation (don’t respond to the aggressor, walk away and if necessary, get support from the Hopkinton Police). Please look out for each other. The Hopkinton Police has been notified of event, and they support our right to PEACEFULLY protest. Thank you.
A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
