The People's Plaza

For more than two centuries, people from diverse backgrounds representing varied causes have gathered in the shadow of Independence Hall and in the presence of the iconic Liberty Bell to assemble publicly, voice their opinions, and point out injustice, exercising their right to free speech. On Independence Mall, people have demonstrated for causes including civil and human rights, an end to war, and the expression of their faith. The space stands as a reminder of the power of free speech, as enshrined in the First Amendment to the United States Constitution.
