Spotlight on State Spending - Stand with Standing Rock

Where: Vermont State House, 115 State St., Montpelier
When: Thurs Dec 1 @ 3:30 pm
Organized by:  Central VT SURJ (Showing Up for Racial Justice), Central 
VT Climate Action, Upper Valley Affinity Group

Citizens of Vermont will call on the State Treasurer to withdraw all 
State funds from TD Bank.  As a customer of TD bank, Vermont is 
supporting a financial corporation heavily invested in the Dakota Access 
Pipeline. We respectfully reject the use of taxpayers' money for a 
project that violates treaty rights, human rights and environmental 
rights. Bring a headlamp.

March & Mass Action to Defund DAPL & Stop Human Rights Abuses

Where: Christ Church, 64 State St., Montpelier
When: Mon Dec 5 @ 9 am
Organized by: Central VT SURJ, Central VT Climate Action, Upper Valley 
Affinity Group, the Make, Rising Tide VT

The governor of North Dakota has issued an order to break up the Oceti 
Sakowin Camp (the largest camp at Standing Rock), effective immediately. 
On November 28, police and National Guard used tear gas, rubber bullets, 
pepper spray, sound grenades, and water cannons in subfreezing 
conditions against thousands of people. Hundreds of people were injured. 
Our solidarity efforts are needed now more than ever.

In this action, we will demand an end to all human rights violations 
against the water protectors and their allies and that the treaty rights 
of the Standing Rock Sioux be upheld. We will demand that dishonest, 
violent, racist, and unjust treatment of indigenous peoples end NOW.

This action is for those who are willing to risk arrest as well as those 
who intend to support without risking arrest. There will be a brief 
training in nonviolent direct action at Christ Church at 9 am.
