Ezra's broadcast

Ezra's broadcast was a message of rebellion delivered shortly after the raid on the communications towerin the year 4 BBY. Inspired by his parents, Mira and Ephraim, Ezra Bridger's broadcast encouraged bravery against the Galactic Empire, calling for the galaxy to resist its oppressive rule. Bridger's message of rebellion was transmitted from the hacked Imperial Communications Center on the planet Lothal, and it was sent across the galaxy until the center was destroyed by the order of Governor Wilhuff Tarkin.

Despite the attempts of the Galactic Empire to quash the message, it was heard by thousands on Lothal and in the surrounding star systems before spreading across the galaxy, reaching every corner and giving thousands of people hope in their darkest moments. Resistance against the Empire grew from a collection of cells to a full-blown rebellion, the Alliance to Restore the Republic.
Ezra's messageStar Wars Rebels: Battle to the End also managed to reach the very people who had inspired him to make it, his parents Mira and Ephraim Bridger, who had been arrested and imprisoned for treason. Hearing their son's message, and recognizing his voice, the Bridgers were inspired to break themselves and dozens of other prisoners out. Whilst they managed to help everyone else escape, the Bridgers themselves perished.
In 4 ABY, shortly before the Battle of Endor, C-3PO told the Ewoks on Endor about the broadcast Ezra sent to the galaxy, telling them how a boy was able to spark the rebellion with a message broadcast across the worlds.Return of the Jedi: Beware the Power of the Dark Side!
