Black Lives Matter - Candlelight Vigil on Independence Day

Black Lives Matter
Candlelight Vigil on Independence Day
PA/NY Bridge at Narrowsburg, NY at dusk.

Greetings, friends. 

On Saturday, the 4th of July, on the Narrowsburg Bridge, there will be a candlelight vigil for the Black lives lost to police brutality. We will gather at dusk, to offer a peaceful counterpoint to the fireworks display. 

Please join us with your protest signs, flags, sparklers, candles. Please bring beeswax candles in place of petroleum paraffin* products.   If you can, please order a box to share with others. Please share this announcement with friends to join us.

Black Lives Matter!
