No Kings Day Hillsborough NC

I attended #nokingsday in Hillsborough, N.C. I went specifically there because of it’s incredible history with the revolutionary war.

The protest in Hillsborough was organized by a local group called Concerned Carolinians. They are an local unaffiliated grassroots political action group.



Xavier Adams, Sally Greene Orange County Commissioner  at large and
Retired North Carolina Congressman David Price were also there. Unfortunately, there seems to be an issue with that video. Hopefully someone else got video of them.

Fight for the Backcountry

The Alamance Battleground State Historic Site in North Carolina hosts an annual reenactment of the Battle of Alamance called ‘fight for the Backcountry. ” This event marks the anniversary of the 1771 battle, which was the violent conclusion of the Regulator Movement. The reenactment features 18th-century soldiers, artillery, and living history interpreters, recreating the conflict between the Regulators and Governor Tryon’s militia. 

The Regulators were backcountry farmers who were protesting a corrupt colonial government. 

Here are some photos and videos from the event.
