Father's-4-Justice US to Hold Civil Rights Rallys in Two New England States for "Fatherless Day"

Fathers-4-Justice, the civil rights movement that started in London and swept across Europe, Australia, and Canada is here in the US. Concord, NH and Boston, MA are just two of several cities across the nation that will be hosting Fathers-4-Justice demonstrations on June 17. 2005. The Boston, MA rally will be held from 11:30 a.m.-1:00 p.m beginning at City Hall Plaza. The Concord, NH rally is to be held at the NH State House from 3:00 p.m.-4:30 p.m.

(PRWEB) June 5, 2005 -- On Friday, June 17th, Members of Fathers-4-Justice US and supporters will gather in Concord, NH and Boston, MA to raise public awareness of the plight of fathers and children within inequitable state family court systems. The cities are two of several in the nation hosting demonstrations on "Fatherless Day." The event will be conducted in the flamboyant style of F4J demonstrations that have been so successful in raising public awareness.

RobertChase heads Fathers-4-Justice in New England and was featured in a recent New York Times Magazine article on shared parenting and fatherhood activism.

"Fathers4Justice USAs mission is to raise public awareness of how the 'winner-take-all custody system is failing the children, the fathers, and the families of America," says Chase.

"The traditional practice of pitting parent vs. parent in a custody battle creates a destructive dynamic that has a deeply negative effect on our children and our society. Its time for change. There is a better way. We hope that anyone who has been touched by this issue, and anyone who believes that children should have two parents in their lives will join us in advocating for shared parenting. What better place to start than Massachusetts and New Hampshire?"

The events will draw attention to the plight of children and parents who are unnecessarily removed from each other due to the painful child custody processes that are currently in place in family courts.
