Conch Republic Independence Celebration 2020
The Conch Republic was born on April 23, 1982, in response to a United States Border Patrol blockade of the Florida Keys. Since the United States insisted on treating the Keys like a foreign country, mayor Dennis Wardlow seceded from the Union. Today, the Conch Republic stands proudly as a community with a "Sovereign State Of Mind" made up of "people who seceded where others have failed." Celebration 2020 celebrates Key West’s One Human Family and the diversity of its Conch-stituents dedicated to bringing humor, peace and respect to the world!
