The Lineup
The concert will feature Jane Fonda, Patti Smith, Bette Midler, Rufus Wainwright, Sasha Allen, Joy Reid, Wilson Cruz, Broadway Inspirational Voices, and more!
✨ 250 years later, we still choose community over kings. ✨
Grab your favorite cocktail or mocktail, throw on your festive loungewear, and invite your friends for an evening of music, laughter, connection, with a twist of fun and collective joy.
While others turn patriotism into a performance centered on power, were choosing something different community, creativity, and action. Were celebrating the freedoms that belong to all of us and the people who make those freedoms meaningful every day.
And because we know so many are feeling the pressure of rising costs for gas, groceries, and everyday essentials, we wanted to create a celebration thats fun, welcoming, affordable, and accessible to everyone.
Join Hope & Action on June 14th for a festive virtual watch party and sing-along filled with good vibes, great people, inspiring moments, and plenty of reasons to celebrate together.
🎶 Raise your glass. Raise your voice.
🎉 Community is the celebration.

(1,600 posts)As in, my stomach is sinking. I feel sick.
I live in a very populated area, and there is nothing closer than an hour drive away from me.
I live on Amtrak's NE Corridor line, and public transportation to one would take longer.
I can walk to most demonstrations. I can walk to a public FIFA viewing if I wanted to.
WTF?!?
I don't want to watch this alone, or with other people virtually. I want to be with other people in real life.

(We're hosting one at our brewery here in Seattle.)

I wish I was in Seattle. I'd go to your gathering!
