SACRED SPACES DON’T NEED SNIPERS.

Yesterday, somewhere in the neighborhood of 500 people came to Memorial Circle—and they brought something to say. #SacredSpacesDontNeedSnipers #ArchWatch #86TheArch #MemorialCircle #NoArch #VeteransOverVanity #PublicLands #CivicEngagement #documentaryphotography

Great day to preserve Memorial Circle. Lots of approval from the passing cars #noarch #86thearch #3rdactdmv

Important context: Judge Chutkan’s order permits archaeological information-gathering; construction or demolition in preparation for construction requires 14 days’ notice. Watch. Document. When they go -we go. #86TheArch #ThirdActDMV

#ArchWatch — Sept. 24. Archaeological testing appears to be underway at Memorial Circle. A fenced work area and supplies remain on site, suggesting the testing operation is continuing.

It only looks like rain. It’s always sunny when is playing for you.
A few members of the DC Activist Street Band showed up to support our impromptu #archwatch vigil at Memorial Circle.

Very, very cool of @vanessazanin.bsky.social and a friend to come play for us in the rain. Their music lifted everyone’s spirits, and their generosity meant a lot.

No sniper towers going up today. #ArchWatch #86TheArch

Good news from #ArchWatch: no signs of construction at Memorial Circle today—and no sniper tower. In the rain, strangers became neighbors, standing together to defend sacred ground and a shared ideal.

No construction today. No complacency tomorrow. When they go, we go. #arlington #86TheArch #vigil

A Message from President Lincoln

In 1838, Lincoln warned that danger could come from within. Today, his words call for prudent stewardship and restraint.

Protect Arlington’s memorial landscape. Join Third Act DMV.

There’s been ongoing protests against the arch.

Here’s a short thread of the multi-day vigil they held during the Memorial Day Weekend.

There’s been many more protests since then.

These folks, btw, also do mutual aid, #TeslaTakedown, fight against ICE, etc. #86theArch
