A small Rogue Squadron crew hoisted special Juneteenth messages over I-95 yesterday morning: FREEDOM FROM OPPRESSION and STOP JIM CROW 2.0! We honor the past fights for freedom and stand alongside those fighting today for freedom for all.

A small crew of Rogue Squadron pirates 🏴‍☠️ was out yesterday morning shouting VOTE BY JUNE 23 from our Gorman Rd crow’s nest! These letters are tall as a mizzen and visible by passing ships on the horizon. #MDPrimary
