United StatesThe historic sloop Clearwater was removed from the July 4 Parade of Ships in New York Harbor due to political banners displayed on its sails. The banners read 'Save the Clean Water Act' and 'Indigenous Rights, Racial Justice, Climate Solutions,' according to social media posts. The U.S. Coast Guard stated that political messaging was prohibited under the event's participation rules, and after the Clearwater refused to remove the banners, it was escorted away from the parade. The ship, which has a long history of environmental activism, had previously participated in similar events, including the bicentennial celebrations in 1976. The Clearwater’s executive director claimed the group was unaware of any specific ban on political messaging and emphasized their inclusion in the parade.
