Activists protest the Bank’s continued unjust foreclosures and evictions of working families and its funding of mountaintop removal coal mining. “By funding mountain top removal mining, the Bank is destroying American communities throughout Appalachia. The recent coal-ash spill in Tennessee vividly illustrates the devastation caused by coal mining,” according to Matt Leonard, one of the organizers of Saturday’s protest. Activists will serve the Bank a foreclosure notice for “failing to pay its social and environmental debts”. Bank of America, where’s your heart? Stop home foreclosures of working families and stop funding dirty forms of energy. Activists will also be closing their accounts with Bank of America and encouraging others to do the same.
