Bringing light to Boston’s enduring revolutionary spirit https://www.silencedogoodboston.com

#nokings The Washington Elm on Cambridge Common, where Washington took command of the Army, est 250 years ago today. We returned here to remember those first Americans who sacrificed for our enduring pursuit of liberty in the face of oppression, economic threats, military rule, and abuse of power.

Cambridge, MA is the birthplace of the #USArmy We honor the New Englanders who were the first to defend our American ideals & to sacrifice their lives for those ideals. Individuals are mortal but liberty, justice, learning, decency, and freedom are eternal. 📍Old Cambridge Burial Ground #nokings

Apparently some people are interested in having a baby boom right now. We took to Abigail Adams’s (a revolutionary among revolutionaries) girlhood home with a few ideas of what might help make that happen; basically, respect women.

Things have felt scary in so many eras of our country’s history. The fear we feel in this moment is how we know it’s our time to act as Americans always have: to preserve the liberties former generations fought for and to further those causes for future generations. You aren’t alone.

Our work may be centered in Boston, but support is coming from across the nation. We have been so moved by the kind messages from Massachusetts to Kentucky to Hawaii. Many folks mention that our work gives them hope, and we wanted you to know that your responses give us hope in return. #resist
