The neighborhood had another peaceful "Stand Out" at Porter Square to register our outrage over the killing of George Floyd by police officers.  The outrage, of course, has spread to protest the structural racism in many other parts of our society.

Many of our protestors moved on at noon to a My Brother's Keeper voter registration event at Cambridge Common. A great idea!

And there are "stand outs" every night (at 6:30pm), in the median of Mass Ave/Linnaean St, and way down toward the Common.

This event was posponed. Stay tuned!

Reminder:

We will Stand Out Against Racism again on Sunday at 11:00 am!

Make/bring your sign; wear your mask. 

There is plenty of room to social distance as we Stand Out around the Square and Mass Ave.

All are welcome!

Join with other neighborhood groups (with social distancing) Saturday at 10 with your masks, gloves, more and bigger signs. Bring your neighbors and friends. 

Neighbors will be "standing out" at many of Cambridge's squares (even Davis Square); let's make Mass Ave, Porter Square a stand out this Saturday! 

Let's keep the pressure on, peacefully:
