Antifa is recruiting Boston students, calling on college-aged activists to wear black bloc for Sunday's "direct action" march on the Mass. Ave Bridge.

Seen on the Boston University and Boston College subreddits:

A large crowd of Black Lives Matter-Antifa activists gathered on MIT's campus, demanding the "defunding, demilitarization, disarmament...and immediate disbandment of all police departments in the Greater #Boston area, followed by the rest of Massachusetts..."

"The liberation of all oppressed peoples necessitates the destruction of the political-economic systems of capitalism and imperialism as well as patriarchy."

College students on MIT's campus are taught anti-police chants before the #BlackLivesMatter march:

"No liberation without revolution! No liberation without abolition!"

"Whose city? Our streets!"

Black Lives Matter-Antifa protesters take over the Mass. Ave Bridge, marching toward Boston Common:

The march's organizer stops the crowd over the Charles River to honor black lives, explaining that the water beneath the bridge symbolizes the Atlantic slave trade.
