Citibank is the second largest bank funding fossil fuel projects. The Summer of Heat campaign has been organizing daily actions and protesting its role in funding climate chaos for weeks now. Lately, Citi has been targeting climate leaders to disrupt the campaign. They have been colluding with the NYPD to arrest activists on trumped-up criminal charges that got dismissed by the D.A., filing restraining orders against organizers to squash dissent.
Yesterday, John, a musician and climate organizer, held a Cello performance in the park in front of Citibank headquarters to show that activists won't let the bank deflect their role in the crisis or infringe on people's freedom of speech. He was arrested and will face a trial where he can risk up to 7 years of prison. This is what financial organizations do. They would rather send grandfathers worried about their family's future in prison than do anything to stop destroying our planet and our future. -
