Saturday, July 4, 5pm, Goodale Park, 120 W. Goodale St.

The Fourth of July is a celebration of freedom and independence. However, in this country, black lives are not fully free.

Join us for a peaceful rally and march at Goodale Park. We will have speakers, poets, musical performance, tribute, and vendors. The event will be livestreamed for those unable to physically attend.

Let’s hold our country accountable to its promise to be one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

This rally and march will be serving to link this current movement to the past black civil rights movements, as black lives have been fought for, long before the current BLM movement. We will pay respects to those who fought and sacrificed before us, and carry the ancestors with us during our current movement.

Please social distance and clean up after yourselves in our gorgeous community park.

Bring your signs, unite, let our voices be heard, and wear Pan-African/Black Liberation flag colors:

• Red: the blood that unites all people of Black African ancestry, and shed for liberation;

• Black: black people whose existence as a nation, not a nation-state, is affirmed by the existence of the flag;

• Green: the abundant natural wealth of Africa.
