US coast guard forces vessel out of New York ship parade over 'politically charged' banners
Footage shot from aboard a ship owned by the Hudson River Sloop Clearwater environmental organization showed US Coast Guard and New York Police Department vessels directing the tall ship away from New York Harbor's Sail4th 250 parade on Saturday. The Coast Guard said the environmental group's vessel was removed after displaying banners including "Indigenous Rights, Racial Justice, Climate Solutions," which it deemed "politically charged" under event rules. Clearwater disputed that characterization, saying it was ordered to leave the parade route and was not given the option to remove the messages.
