Activist Street Bands from Somerville to Italy turned Davis Square into a festival this weekend.
If this article was of interest please consider sharing it.
The group with the “pig” were marching all the way up by Teele Sq, along the boulevard. I dont think that was an “approved permit route” according to “Jackie from City Hall’s” reverse 311 call message.
From the pictures it looks more like a protest parade than a honk festival.
Covers the gamut of a lot of the usual informational protest groups, along with some of the “politically (un)correct” a.k.a. NWC groups.
What is NWC?
There were a number of small ‘neighborhood’ Honk parades on Friday evening, starting around Hodgkins Park. I think these mostly stuck to the sidewalk rather than the streets.
