Join a Bay Area direct action against Chase Bank funding of oil and fracked-gas pipelines, as part of the national Rise Up! resistance weeks July 16-31. Frontline communities resisting these pipelines, including the L’eau Est La Vie Camp, Appalachians Against Pipelines. Camp White Pine, and more, are calling on people across the country to join with them in these weeks of action against banks funding pipelines and extreme energy projects.
They write:
“The pipeline projects we are fighting are all facing key moments and critical deadlines. If we are to stop these projects we must act now. It is with this backdrop that we are calling on you to rise up in solidarity with our frontline resistance. Join us from July 16th-31st as we #RiseTogether and take direct action to stop all pipelines and all extreme energy projects.”
The Bay Area action is hosted by Diablo Rising Tide, which is also hosting trainings on direct action and street mural painting in the weeks before.
