Rally in Support of Protesting Indian Farmers and the Right to Dissent
5.00 pm, September 26, 2021
Harvard Square, Cambridge (near T station)

----------------------------------------------------------------
September 26,2021 marks the 10th month of farmers protests all across 
India and Morchas (Encampments) surrounding Delhi. Hundreds of thousands 
have been sitting peacefully. Yet they have been attacked with water 
cannons, Lathis ( sticks) and been fired upon. More than 650 farmers 
have died in these encampments. In other places, the police and security 
forces have unleashed state terror. Monopoly media keeps maligning them 
as “ terrorists”, “ criminals”. Farmers are heroically fighting all 
these attacks peacefully and have called for the unity of all the people 
of India, irrespective of religion, caste, gender, lifestyle and place 
of origin. They are defending the rights of all peoples of India, the 
future generations and nature.
Friends of Bhartiya Kisan Union (BKU) invites you to join a rally on 
September 26, 2021, to support the just struggles of Indian farmers in 
Defence of the Rights of All and for a life of Dignity, Justice and decency.
We will have poetry, music, speeches and Langar (food provided by 
community kitchen)
