On October 3 of 1860 the Wide Awakes marched in the name of emancipation. They held torchlight parades around the country; in Chicago, Boston, Cleveland, and through lower Manhattan, all carrying lanterns and clad in oilcloth cloaks. Revive and remix this tradition with a Grand Procession of your own.
