Hands Off! Day of Action

April 5 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Location: Bryant Park, NYC to Madison Square Park, and actions nationwide

Trump, Musk, and the Far-Right majorities in Congress are gutting services, firing workers, raising prices, and racing to slash Medicaid, Social Security, civil liberties, universities, the Department of Education, DEI, voting rights, LGBTQ+ rights, and more. The truth of our nation’s history is being attacked and suppressed.

It’ll take more than marches to change this country’s direction—but every resistance needs a mass movement behind it. It needs people of faith to pray with their feet.

That’s why Middle is joining this National Day of Action. We will gather in Bryant Park at 1:00 PM, march on Fifth Avenue, and end at Madison Square Park.

Email Rev. Amanda at ahashcraft@middlechurch.org to be added to the Signal chat for the day if you’d like to march in coalition.

If you’re not in NYC, find your local HANDS OFF Day of Action here: https://handsoff2025.com/—and let us know where you’re marching!

We believe in the power of Love. Period.

Through Love, we are each created in God’s image and filled with the Divine Spark. No matter whom we love, no matter how we look, no matter where we are on our journey, God’s imprint is in every person of every race/ethnicity, every gender, and every sexual orientation. We believe God speaks many languages and is calling us on many paths to peace—Shalom. We believe that Love put on flesh—brown, poor, Jewish baby flesh—and came to live among us. We believe God lives among us still; we are the living body of Christ. We are the hands, feet, and heartbeat of God. We believe the Spirit of God calls us to freedom, and we are not free until all of us are free.
