In Massachusetts, the capital city of Boston and most of Middlesex County celebrated the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride and the Battles of Lexington and Concord that started the American Revolution, with uncanny parallels to present-day resistance to tyranny.[11] Amongst the tens of thousands of local citizens and tourists that attended Lexington's battle reenactment and the town parades of both Concord and Lexington were fringes of anti-Trumpers who protested peacefully,[12] both along the crowded sidelines and from within the parade itself.[13] There was also a demonstration in Shelburne Falls.[14]
In New Hampshire, there was a protest in the capital city of Concord.[15]
