Eclipse Rally
2024-04-08 14:30 - 16:30 | Bloomington Arboretum, E 10th St, Bloomington, IN 47405, Bloomington, Indiana, 47405, United States
Dozens of groups across the state supporting various progressive causes will join together for a RALLY to call for an end to state complicity in genocide and to defend higher education from MAGA reactionary extremism. Due to unconstitutional suppression of pro-Palestinian speech on campus, Indiana University has become the front line in the battle against Indiana fascists’ march toward one-party authoritarian rule. The TOTAL ECLIPSE will bring 100-300 thousand tourists, as well as celebrities and press attention, to the Bloomington campus.

Organizers are asking for YOUR PRESENCE at the rally at 2:30pm at the IU Arboretum to join us in a call for CEASEFIRE and SOLIDARITY. Traffic will be a major obstacle. Carpool and travel before the day if possible. More details will be posted on socials.

Location: Intersection of E 10th St. and N. Fee Lane, next to the Herman B. Wells Library.
