CHICAGO, IL – BUCKINGHAM FOUNTAIN – MEMORIAL DAY RALLY – (5/20/2020)

DAY 76 of the Unconstitutional LOCKDOWN of America.

In Episode #2: “Honor The Fallen” of the explosive docu-series UNCONSTITUTIONAL: An American Story, filmmaker Anthony Delmedico journeys to Chicago, a city known for some of the most stringent lockdown measures in America.

It’s May 20, 2020, marking Day 76 of the unconstitutional lockdown that has left citizens in disarray and undermined their fundamental rights.

Anthony organizes a Memorial Day Rally at Buckingham Fountain to “Honor the Fallen.” This powerful assembly seeks to pay tribute to the lives lost during this tumultuous time and to protest the city ordinance that allows no more than ten people to gather in public parks, as well as the illegal “stay-at-home” orders that have stifled freedoms across the nation.

This episode explores the grave violations of Constitutional Rights that have occurred during the pandemic, particularly focusing on free speech and the right to assemble. When hundreds of military veterans and influential voices gather to express their views openly, they represent not only those lost but also the fundamental American principle that citizens have the right to gather and voice their opinions.

Joined by notable speakers such as Michael Gerber, Purple Heart Veteran Winn, Constitutional Attorney Rick Green, Pastor Brian Gibson, and Virologist Dr. Jim Maheen, this rally creates a significant dialogue about governmental overreach.

As they advocate for their rights, these leaders highlight how restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic have infringed upon their freedoms and silenced dissenting voices.

Tensions escalate when Mayor Lori Lightfoot instructs the police to dismantle Anthony’s audio equipment and disperse the crowd. The oppressive response captures the moment vividly as decorated military veterans, free thinkers, and thought leaders find themselves surrounded by law enforcement. This confrontation serves as a stark representation of the struggle between public safety measures and the preservation of constitutional rights.

“Honor The Fallen” is a gripping exploration of courage in the face of adversity, revealing the resilience of ordinary Americans fighting for their rights and honoring those affected by government mandates during the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic.

By documenting this moment, the episode underscores the importance of free speech and right to assembly as foundational pillars of democracy, urging viewers to reflect on the inherent rights that should be protected, even in times of crisis. Join us as we bear witness to this essential chapter in America’s ongoing struggle for freedom and justice.
