March For Science: Detroit

Hart Plaza
Detroit, MI
United States
April 22, 2017,
1:00 pm to 4:00 pm

This march is intended to be a peaceful protest against the censorship that has been put in place by President Trump. Science is the basis of all life. From clean water and air to food and safety. We want better medicine and a better understanding of our bodies and our health!! On May 10th, 1933 the Nazis raided libraries and bookstores across Germany and proceeded to burn books they did not approve of. The intellectual censorship implemented by the new Trump administration echoes much the same. Taking control of what we, the people, can and can not read in relation to the newly developed scientific discoveries that are being made. If you are waiting for Science to develop a new chemo drug for child..or anything similar this is a horrifying idea. We MUST stand together to show our president (yes he is our president) and the world that we know what is happening and we want it to STOP NOW!! In the words of a powerful MLK "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." So, gather your friends, family, co-workers and anyone else you can find and lets stand up for what is right!!!
