Woke California school board members call for people to BOYCOTT Fourth of July because 'there is no reason to celebrate'
AnaMarie Avila Farias, a member of Contra Costa County Board of Education, shared a fading image of the US flag along with the caption: 'BOYCOTT 4TH OF JULY'
'I haven't celebrated 4th of July since 2016 and I don't think it's a holiday to celebrate' she wrote on a Facebook post. 'What do you think?'
The local school board member later confessed to not 'feeling particularly patriotic' thanks to abortion rights being overturned last week
In response to a comment on her post suggesting she 'maybe have a funeral and bury the Constitution and the Flag,' Farias wrote: 'Please invite me!'

The reason to celebrate Independence Day is the fact that you can say stupid things like, "Don't celebrate July 4," without being hauled off to jail or the funny farm.
Without the American revolution, there would be no freedom of speech, no Constitution, no Bill of Rights.

So, they'll report to work on July 4th? They get a paid day off to observe Independence Day. If they won't observe Independence Day, they should either work or forfeit a paid vacation day ... to be fair to the taxpayers.

Yeeeeeaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh, a lot of her neighbors see the holiday differently. I won't be doing this event, but honoring and benefiting Concord PD, https://brazenracing.com/starsandstripesrun/ . The owners of Brazen Racing are CoCo County residents (I've done 4 Brazen events so far this year, so I'm not avoiding them by not doing the event in Concord).
All in all, AnaMarie Avila Farias, :tongue2: :tongue2: :tongue2: :tongue2: :tongue2: .

Certainly that would fit right in with all their 'wokeness'.
