As a long-time lover of punk rock and many of the bands on this bill, it stings to see a festival that's supposed to represent our anti-establishment ethos being tied to politically divisive figures such as Trump. Punk in the Park, a new festival in Denver and other U.S. cities, is currently mired in controversy due to its organizer's support for Trump, a figure whom many in our community find profoundly antithetical to our values. So many of these bands are too good to support this festival. Brew Ha Ha Productions are the organizers and below is a screenshot of their donation.

We must send a strong message that we will not support festivals and organizations that do not align with the values and beliefs of our community. Let's stand together to halt Punk in the Park. It's time to show that we, the punk rock community, are not just a demographic to be monetized, but a collective force that stands for socio-economic justice. Nazi punks, F%$# OFF!

Bring your voice to our cause — sign the petition today. They are continually booking these festivals so this petition will go on in perpetuity.
