As President Donald Trump prepares for his second inauguration, nationwide protests capture headlines, with Connecticut’s Fairfield County standing out in the movement. On January 20, local groups such as the Bethel Blues Sisters and the REBs are organizing the “2025 Freedom March” at Putnam State Park to voice community concerns over the Trump administration’s anticipated impact. The rally emphasizes the power of collective action and civic engagement, mirroring similar initiatives across the country. While smaller than past monumental protests, these demonstrations signify a crucial call for inclusivity and unity in navigating this new political era.
