This year, Good Friday also happens to fall on April 18 (today). This is the day that two thousand and 25 years ago Jesus was condemned and killed by being nailed to a cross -- a common punishment at the time. This is one of only two events of the biblical story of Jesus that scholars widely accept as historical -- his baptism being the other one.
Good Friday: In Middle English the word "good" connoted "holy."
As we contemplate Paul Revere and other men's rides (Revere was not the only one who rode) we also can contemplate a political structure in which one (and no doubt there were others) who spoke the truth was arrested and executed -- a situation which unbelievably our country seems to be reenacting today. If not executed than at least arrested -- and who knows what will come next.
Inspiration to keep protecting and fighting for our Democracy!
Love Our Beloved Democracy!!!!!!!!
Only east coast?

We haven't come far in 2000 years, it seems.
