For the second year in a row, there will be no in-person reenactments of the skirmishes that began the American Revolution at Lexington and Concord.
The coronavirus emergency has led reenactors to cancel in-person events, which usually occur on third Monday of the month, which is a state holiday known as Patriots Day. Instead, the Lexington Minute Men have scheduled certain events online.
An organization that runs Boston's annual homosexuality-affirming parade has announced the appointment of seven members to a new committee designed to rid the organization of racism.
"Boston Pride is dismantling the systemic oppression and individual, interpersonal, institutional, and structural racism within its own organization," Boston Pride said in a written statement Friday, April 16.
