Vigil for Aaron Bushnell
"In memory of Aaron Bushnell, the anarchist who declared "I will not be complicit in genocide" and set himself on fire in front of the Israeli embassy, and to honor the 30,000+ Palestinian, Yemeni, and Lebanese killed by the military industrial complex with our tax dollars.
Bring candles and art."

To correct the protest organizers today. The first time the Benjamin Franklin Bridge was shut down was May 8th 1970 when a group of Temple students protested the Vietnam War. It was shut down in 2020 during the George Floyd Protests. It was shut down in 2022. It was shut down December 2023 for a different protest calling for a ceasefire. Please do not lie to the people. The march today was cool though.
These two individuals were hired by the democratic party to specifically infiltrate and interfere with third parties. Support third party this election
