New Yorkers joined noted civil rights attorney Norman Siegel, State Senator Bill Perkins, former Senate candidate Jonathan Tasini, and Reverend Billy of the Church of Stop Shopping for the annual July 4th reading of the Constitution in Strawberry Fields. Yoko Ono sent a poem in honor of the day which was read by Joan Wile of the Granny Peace Brigade.
DFNYC member Bernadette Evangelist attended with supporters of Adam Sullivan, Congressional candidate in the 8th CD running on a platform of impeachment and the promise to protect the Constitution. Both Bernadette and Adam were invited to address the crowd.
DFNYC member Dan Jacoby did a spirited reading from the Constitution. Other DFNYC members spotted included Bruce Markens, Emily Pearlman, Bruce Rosen, and Chuck Zlatkin.
