UPDATE: Sadly, this year’s Peace Parade has been cancelled 🙁
This Sunday, the 15th, forty organizations and thousands of marchers are expected to participate in the Saint Patrick’s Day Peace Parade in South Boston.
We will join them and march for Manning, Snowden, open government and personal privacy. Join us. Bring your banners, signs, and friends! Tell us if you plan to join us.
We will assemble at 11am near D Street near Cypher St. in South Boston. The parade starts at noon. We march in the political groups division which should assemble near the corner of D Street and Cypher Street. Look for our banner.
We would appreciate it if you told us you plan to attend, but it is required.
Getting to the Assembly Area
We will be around the corner of D Street and Cypher Street.
By the T
Come by T if at all possible as the area will be very congested. Broadway is the closest MBTA subway station, though it tends to get crowded so you will need to give yourself much extra time to get there. An alternative way is to get off at the MBTA Silver Line’s World Trade Center stop and walk from there. We included maps for both methods.
Via Broadway MBTA Station
Via World Trade Center MBTA Station
By Car
