Rainy weather led to Bread and Puppet Theater performing its satirical, papier-mache “Domestic Insurrection Circus”<\/a> inside First Church in Cambridge on Sept. 3, 2017. Acts mocked Donald Trum (though not by name) and called for the “fall of capitalism,” “the dismantling of the prison-industrial complex,” “the liberation of Puerto Rico,” and the toppling of “monuments that serve as a reminder of oppression and white supremacy.” Acts spoke of Yemen, of thousands of migrants dying as they try to cross the Mediterranean, and of the prisoners Oscar Lopez Rivera and Chelsea Manning gaining freedom.<\/p>\n
