Old North projections

Old North projections

Silence Dogood had some messages to project onto the Old North Church tonight.

A small crowd gathered as the images cycled. Asked whether the projectors were part of the official 250 celebration or something else, a hired photographer responded only with "rogue". 

This is one of many such projections by the group. Previous iterations include the Old South Meeting House and the Old State House.

For those wondering about the group's name, Benjamin Franklin used "Silence Dogood" as a psudonym to write about tyranny starting in his teens.

Go, Boston! Will prints be available? This transplanted New Englander (to Northern Virginia) would love to have them!

I'm in rural Arkansas.  Have many Revolutionary War ancestors on both sides of my family,  at least one died from his war wounds.  My dad fought in the US Army Air Corp with the resistance in WWII France.  I served with my local Army Reserve Unit.   I am so happy to see these projections and the resistance all over this nation.    We see you Boston.  We appreciate you.  We believe you and we are heeding the call....keep up the good works!
