Roslindale Unity Gathering Planned

ROSLINDALE, MA — As reports of violence and hate speech percolate across the country and here in Boston after last week's presidential election, community members in Roslindale are planning a Unity Gathering to speak out.

The event is set for 4 p.m. Sunday in Adams Park, on Poplar Street.

Its organizers write:

Join with neighbors to gather in peace and solidarity, and to stand up and speak out against violence and hate across the city, state, and country.

We are a diverse, connected community - this is a concrete way to show that we will support and care for each other in the face of fear and anger.

Invited speakers include local elected officials, faith leaders, and more, according to the event page.
