D-Day Bridge Brigade — June 6th, 10am, Tower Drive, Eau Claire

On June 6, 1944, ordinary people did extraordinary things to defend democracy against fascism. This June 6th, we honor that legacy by taking it to the overpass. Join us for the D-Day Bridge Brigade on Friday, June 6th at 10am on Tower Drive in Eau Claire — part of a nationwide day of visibility actions happening in hundreds of communities across the country. Our focus is the traffic below — we'll be holding large overpass banners, waving flags, and showing the thousands of drivers passing underneath us that everyday citizens are standing up for democracy right here at home.

Feel free to bring a sign for drivers crossing above, but the real power is in what we show to the street below. Suggested messages include Honor Vets, Fight Fascism and Defend Our Constitution. The veterans who stormed those beaches weren't fighting for a political party — they were fighting for the right of people to have a say in their own government. That's exactly what's at stake right now, and that's exactly why we show up.
