This Week of Divestment will target Citibank and Wells Fargo banks, the major investors financing the Dakota Access Pipeline. The water protectors at Standing Rock have asked us to keep up the pressure on the banks before January 1st. Last Saturday, thirty volunteers were at nine East Bay Citibank branches asking bank customers sign a petition to the bank and to close their bank accounts. Many actually did and thanked us for the information we provided them. We need to do it again! Please find a buddy and sign up for one of the Citibank or Wells Fargo branches listed below.
Please RSVP to Carolyn Norr (carolynclara@gmail.com) or lora jo foo (ljfoo70@gmail.com). Let them know which branch you will be covering, and the date (Monday through Friday) and time you plan to be out there.
Here are all the materials you will need. The flyers are directed to bank customers of each bank and to passersby. (The document is set up so you can print it on a two-sided sheet.) Following the flyer, please find a sample script, two sets of divestment letters directed to each bank, and petitions. Please return the signed petitions to the address indicated on the form. Thank you for standing with Standing Rock!
