On Saturday, we gathered at First Church in Roxbury to honor the courage of Henry Knox and his expedition as part of Boston 250.

Alongside Knox’s story, we also uplifted the stories of Black revolutionaries who knew what it meant to live without freedom and stood up for their rights. #Roxbury

We’ll have live demonstrations on how to get the most out of the BOS:311 app, the opportunity to submit cases in person, and several City departments on hand to answer your questions directly. Plus, we’ll have free refreshments and exclusive 311 give away items.

STATEMENT ON DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE LAWSUIT AGAINST BOSTON

This unconstitutional attack on our city is not a surprise. Boston is a thriving community, the economic and cultural hub of New England, and the safest major city in the country β€” but this administration is intent on attacking our community to advance their own authoritarian agenda. This is our City, and we will vigorously defend our laws and the constitutional rights of cities, which have been repeatedly upheld in courts across the country. We will not yield.
