brief mention of ON bells on Rachel Maddow



     Sarah M let me know that Rachel Maddow featured ON.

There is the background for the history and the anniversary at the 
beginning of the show, and then slightly after 3 minutes in, there is 
mention of our ringing.  She said that there will be ringing across the 
country at the same time. I didn't know about that. We (via the church 
office) were requested to do some special ringing tomorrow, but maybe this 
is a bigger organization than the person who originally wrote to us?  At 
any rate our commemorative ringing will be at 6-7 PM tonight, before the 
lantern service, which will be livestreamed. Link here:

    Maddow also talked about the 19th as a day of protests. I can't find 
much mention of an on-foot protest tomorrow in Boston.  They are happening 
in Worcester and Hyannis, for example.  There will be Lexington residents 
protesting a couple of times tomorrow but I'll be in Boston for practice 
and I was too disorganized to order one of the nice "No King  No Tyranny" 
signs to hold. 
     I specified nothing on foot because I found this
bike ride from the North End to Lexington partly along the Minuteman 
Bikeway

I know nothing about it but that.  I'm not involved in any way.
