Change the Mass Flag informational meeting scheduled for Jun 21 - 7 PM

Join us at a Change the Mass Flag informational meeting being led by David Detmold at 7 PM on June 21, 2022 at the Franklin Public Library.  

Steve Derdiarian and I, both Franklin residents, will be joining David as we work toward adoption of a Resolution Supporting changes to the commonwealth of Massachusetts Flag, Seal, and Motto, by the Franklin Town Council.

We are currently preparing to present this Resolution in Support of Changing the MA Flag to Franklin Town Council by providing education about the history of the development of the current Flag, Seal, and Motto, and of the efforts to create a flag and seal that stands for peace, justice, equality, and inclusion.    We are also acquiring Franklin resident signatures on a petition in support of the changes.  

Below are websites that provide more background information:
