DESCRIPTION:WELLS FARGO: PROTECT FUTURE GENERATIONS, DEFUND LINE 3 & FOSSIL 
 FUELS!\n\nFire Wells Board Chair Charles Noski!\n\nWHEN: FRI APRIL 9, 
 10am-Noon: Street Mural & Music. \n12:30pm: March on BlackRock\n\nWHERE: 
 WELLS FARGO WORLD HEADQUARTERS. 420 Montgomery St (btwn Calif. St and 
 Sacramento St) , San Francisco\n\nWHAT:\n\nSTREET MURAL ACTION: Help paint 
 a giant street mural as community groups will paint circle murals of 
 solutions.\n\nPROTECT 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).\n\nMARCH TO BLACKROCK: BlackRock owns a big part 
 of Wells--and must vote fire Wells Board Chair if they are to walk their 
 climate talk.\n\nWHY: \n\nWELLS 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.\n\n#DEFUNDLINE3: Because Stopping This Pipeline is a Matter of 
 Justice\n\n“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.\n\nBack 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.\n\nNow 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.\n\nIt 
 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."\n- 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.\n\nPROTECT FUTURE GENERATIONS: FIRE NOSKI! \nMajority 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. 
 \n\nFrom their release today:\nLast 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.\n\nThis 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] Voting for a 
 1.5 Degrees World." \nhttps://www.proxyvoting.majorityaction.us\n\nMore
