September 28, 2020: #ShutDownKKR Online Day of Action in solidarity with the Wet’suwet’en

Please join us this Monday September 28 – we will be doing a #ShutDownKKR Online Day of Action in solidarity with the Wet’suwet’en.


Even though KKR tried to report us on Facebook and got hundreds of land defenders and organizers banned from FB last weekend, they didn’t get their dates right – so we hope this day of action will be even bigger due to their attempts to silence this movement!


Here is the Facebook eventhttps://www.facebook.com/events/348877819570861

And here is a #ShutDownKKR toolkit full of information and sample posts: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZMd9EbBp9RsryestT76xy_kDm-Zq_pIFF8kelWmX-Oc/edit
