WHEATON, IL — A rally with the aim to "Fight Fascism" is planned for April 5 at 11 a.m. in Adams Park in Wheaton. The rally will be held by the West Suburban Illinois Chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), according to an event flyer shared online.
The event description reads,
"These are not normal times. The capitalist, oligarchic system has failed to protect our planet or our freedoms. As more and more of our leaders turn collaborator, all of us must come together to fight fascism. Join us as we stand in solidarity with immigrants, for LGBTQ rights, for a free Palestine, and most of all in opposition to the 'Elonreich.' A better world is possible!"
