April 24, 2021: Bankrupt Line 3. Stop the Money Pipeline. Protest at BlackRock and JP Moragan Chase. NYC
Phillip Burton Federal Building and U.S. Courthouse, 450 Golden Gate Ave, San Francisco, CA 94102
What: To protest Biden’s inaction on Line 3 and demand that he and the Army Corp of Engineers revoke the permit now.
Support Indigenous communities in Minnesota who are putting their bodies on the line trying to defend their home from the construction of the Line 3 tar sands pipeline.
Tell President Biden to get off his ass. He pledged to be the climate president, and it’s in his power to put a stop to this pipeline.
1
That the Government must tell the truth about the climate and wider ecological emergency, it must reverse all policies not in alignment with that position and must work alongside the media to communicate the urgency for change including what individuals, communities and businesses need to do.
2
The Government must enact legally binding policies to reduce carbon emissions to net zero by 2025 and take further action to remove the excess of atmospheric greenhouse gases. It must cooperate internationally so that the global economy runs on no more than half a planet’s worth of resources per year.
3
We do not trust our Government to make the bold, swift and long-term changes necessary to achieve these changes and we do not intend to hand further power to our politicians. Instead we demand a Citizens’ Assembly to oversee the changes, as we rise from the wreckage, creating a democracy fit for purpose.
4
We demand a just transition that prioritizes the most vulnerable people and indigenous sovereignty; establishes reparations and remediation led by and for Black people, Indigenous people, people of color and poor communities for years of environmental injustice, establishes legal rights for ecosystems to thrive and regenerate in perpetuity, and repairs the effects of ongoing ecocide to prevent extinction of human and all species, in order to maintain a livable, just planet for all.

A coalition of Bay Area Climate direct action groups occupied the San Francisco Army Corps of Engineers office today to demand President Joe Biden cancel the Line 3 permit. They were arrested and released later in the afternoon.
This set of three 17x4 banners were painted for the outside support rally. Designed as vertical banners, they were grounded due to strong winds. The #defundLine3 pop-up-art-show also was displayed--part of the week of Arts and Action. #StopTheMoneyPipeline #StopLine3
While #WaterProtectors risked arrest inside the building in the Army Corps of Engineers office in SF yesterday, Indigenous leader Patricia St. Onge spoke on what is at stake. Patricia is Haudenosaunee and Quebecoise, adopted Cheyenne River Lakota, as well as being a grandmother and mom.

I participated in this mural action by painting, taking photos and video, time-lapse, and drone footage, editing it all into this video On Friday April 9 Wells Fargo's hundreds took over the streets in from of Wells Fargo World Headquarters. They painted a giant 250 foot mural street mural, which Read: WELLS FARGO: DEFUNCD INE & FOSSIL FUELS. FIRE: PROTECT FUTURE GENERATIONS. Then they marched to BlackRock headquarters and covered the office with red clay paint hand prints. Here is some more background info: PROTECT NEXT GENERATIONS SIGN PROJECT: Rows of (distanced) people vigiling will line the street, holding signs with the faces of the next generation in their lives (kids, grand kids, nieces/nephews, siblings, relatives, friends, yourself...). Bring a photo of a young person/s in your life (8 12/x11 landscape/horizontal format) and we will have screen printed DEFUND LINE 3 & FOSSIL FUELS/PROTECT FUTURE GENERATIONS posters (and tape/glue to attach it).
MARCH TO BLACKROCK: BlackRock owns a big part of Wells--and must vote fire Wells Board Chair if they are to walk their climate talk.
WHY:
WELLS FARGO: Wells Fargo has been the world’s third largest financier of fossil fuels over the last five years, with $223 billion in lending and underwriting over 2016-20. It is the world’s leading funder of fracked oil and gas.We Call on all Wells shareholders to Fire Board Chairman Charles Noski; Help us urge city, county, state state pensions and retirement funds, endowments of universities and cultural institutions, foundations, etc to protect future generations by voting Noski out.
#DEFUNDLINE3: Because Stopping This Pipeline is a Matter of Justice
“The fight to stop the Line 3 tar sands pipeline is about justice for the land. It’s about justice for the water. Justice for Anishinaabe people whose culture and way of life it threatens. Justice for people all over the world who are being impacted by the climate crisis.
Back in 2016, I helped to launch #DefundDAPL. As Indigenous Water Protectors were being brutalized by racist, militarized police―shot with rubber bullets, bitten by attack dogs and blasted with water cannons in the middle of winter―#DefundDAPL spread nationally. Protests erupted in cities around the country, close to a dozen city governments committed to breaking ties with the funders of DAPL and nearly $100 million in personal accounts were moved away from the funders of that colonial pipeline.
Now is the time for us to defund the White Supremacist, carbon bomb that is Line 3. As an Anishinaabe woman it is my duty to protect the water, the land, and my people. I am moved to act because I love the people, the four-legged, the winged, the finned, the land, the water.
It is from this sense of duty that I am asking you to join us in this campaign. Together, I know that we can do this. Throughout history people-powered movements have changed the world. And they sure as hell can stop Line 3."
A Call to action and solidarity from Tara Houska (Couchiching First Nation Anishinaabe) currently engaged in the movement to defund fossil fuels and a years-long struggle against Enbridge's Line 3 pipeline. Read the whole call here:

PROTECT FUTURE GENERATIONS: FIRE NOSKI!
Majority Action released their call to Fire Wells Fargo Board Chairman Charles Noski, along with other key corporate leader opposing defunding Fossil Fuels. Stop the Money Pipeline will be working in conjunction with our San Francisco action to build national pressure to fire Noski and Defund Line 3/Fossil Fuels. From their release today:
Last year we demanded that climate-denial architect Lee Raymond be removed from the JPMorgan Chase board of directors. Lots of major shareholders, including 11 state treasurers, heard us and, after a strong no vote, Lee Raymond left the board.
This year we need to build on that success. Not every director is a climate super-villain, but too many are doing too little to transform their companies into sustainable practices. They need to be held accountable - which means fired. We are calling this "Proxy [shareholder]

This is a complication of photos, video, time-lapse, and drone footage I shot covering the 05/07/2021 march and mural Action in San Francisco. Some of my drone footage and time-lapse video was used in the official video with contributors from around the world documenting simultaneous demonstrations on 5/07/2021! From San Francisco to New York, Costa Rica to Canada, people in almost 100 cities took bold action demanding that major banks stop funding the Line 3 pipeline on Twitter here. twitter.com/StopMoneyPipe/status/1391820801301643264?s=20

Chase Bank, Stop Funding #Line3 Tar Sands Pipeline! Community voices in Squirrel Hill, Pittsburgh, spoke up to demand that Chase Bank stop funding the Line3 Pipeline. Per the Thomas Merton Center: Let’s tell Chase Bank to stop funding construction of the Line 3 tar sands pipeline across the treaty territory of the Anishinaabe people and the headwaters of the Mississippi River in northern Minnesota. We’ll be outside the Squirrel Hill branch with signs and leaflets to educate the public and demand that Chase Bank stop funding Line 3 before it’s too late.
If completed, Line 3 will transport almost one million barrels of dirty tar sands per day from Alberta, Canada to the shores of Lake Superior in Wisconsin.
Construction is already happening right now, and will require draining five Billion gallons of water from wetlands throughout Northern Minnesota and drilling under multiple rivers, including twice under the Mississippi. The influx of out of state pipeline workers and “man camps” has also intensified the existing crisis of human trafficking, assault, and missing and murdered indigenous women along the construction route.
Chase Bank is heavily invested in this destruction, and will decide on July 22nd whether to renew their loans to the pipeline project.
Line 3 is a project of the Enbridge Corporation, a Canadian multinational responsible for the largest inland oil spill in the US. Enbridge was also one of the companies building the Dakota Access Pipeline, which involved sustained, coordinated violence and military counterinsurgency tactics against peaceful water protectors and indigenous people by national guard, law enforcement, and private security mercenary firms working on behalf of Enbridge and their partners.
Beyond damage to vast areas of wetlands and the Mississippi River, current construction and future oil spills also threaten the Manoomin wild rice that is sacred to the Anishinaabe people. Enbridge is trying to force their dangerous and unnecessary pipeline through indigenous territories while the Anishinaabe people organize a movement to protect the water and sacred rice through everything from lawsuits to resistance camps in the path of the pipeline itself.
Call Chase Bank today and ask them to #DefundLine3.

Hundreds gathered with a message for Wells Fargo:

A giant street mural was painted the length of a city block, with individual circles painted by 10 different organizations envisioning a world where future generations are protected.

From stopline3.org:
"Tribal nations, community and environmental groups in Minnesota have fought for six years to stop Canadian oil giant Enbridge Energy from building the massive Line 3 pipeline in Northern Minnesota, to take oil from Canada’s tar sands region to Superior, Wis.
The pipeline violates several treaties with the Ojibwe people that establish their right to hunt, fish, and gather along the proposed route.The pipeline would cross 200 bodies of water, including the Mississippi River twice.
If built, Line 3 would carry hundreds of thousands of barrels a day of tar sands crude oil -- some of the dirtiest oil in the world -- and would contribute the equivalent of 50 coal plants worth of carbon pollution to the atmosphere. Its carbon footprint would exceed the entire state of Minnesota’s and, like Keystone XL, would extend the economic viability of the ultra-polluting crude oil source in a way that one expert famously called “game over for the climate.” "

From stopline3.org:
"Tribal nations, community and environmental groups in Minnesota have fought for six years to stop Canadian oil giant Enbridge Energy from building the massive Line 3 pipeline in Northern Minnesota, to take oil from Canada’s tar sands region to Superior, Wis.
The pipeline violates several treaties with the Ojibwe people that establish their right to hunt, fish, and gather along the proposed route.The pipeline would cross 200 bodies of water, including the Mississippi River twice.
If built, Line 3 would carry hundreds of thousands of barrels a day of tar sands crude oil -- some of the dirtiest oil in the world -- and would contribute the equivalent of 50 coal plants worth of carbon pollution to the atmosphere. Its carbon footprint would exceed the entire state of Minnesota’s and, like Keystone XL, would extend the economic viability of the ultra-polluting crude oil source in a way that one expert famously called “game over for the climate.” "
Chase Bank, Stop Funding #Line3 Tar Sands Pipeline! Community voices in Squirrel Hill, Pittsburgh, spoke up to demand that Chase Bank stop funding the Line3 Pipeline. Per the Thomas Merton Center: Let’s tell Chase Bank to stop funding construction of the Line 3 tar sands pipeline across the treaty territory of the Anishinaabe people and the headwaters of the Mississippi River in northern Minnesota. We’ll be outside the Squirrel Hill branch with signs and leaflets to educate the public and demand that Chase Bank stop funding Line 3 before it’s too late.
If completed, Line 3 will transport almost one million barrels of dirty tar sands per day from Alberta, Canada to the shores of Lake Superior in Wisconsin.
Construction is already happening right now, and will require draining five Billion gallons of water from wetlands throughout Northern Minnesota and drilling under multiple rivers, including twice under the Mississippi. The influx of out of state pipeline workers and “man camps” has also intensified the existing crisis of human trafficking, assault, and missing and murdered indigenous women along the construction route.
Chase Bank is heavily invested in this destruction, and will decide on July 22nd whether to renew their loans to the pipeline project.
Line 3 is a project of the Enbridge Corporation, a Canadian multinational responsible for the largest inland oil spill in the US. Enbridge was also one of the companies building the Dakota Access Pipeline, which involved sustained, coordinated violence and military counterinsurgency tactics against peaceful water protectors and indigenous people by national guard, law enforcement, and private security mercenary firms working on behalf of Enbridge and their partners.
Beyond damage to vast areas of wetlands and the Mississippi River, current construction and future oil spills also threaten the Manoomin wild rice that is sacred to the Anishinaabe people. Enbridge is trying to force their dangerous and unnecessary pipeline through indigenous territories while the Anishinaabe people organize a movement to protect the water and sacred rice through everything from lawsuits to resistance camps in the path of the pipeline itself.
