Coal=Profit Over People

I am an activist at heart, but ironically my job doesn't give me the freedom required to fight injustice. My hero/sister was arrested for protesting the Mountain Top Removal. The Mountain Justice Activists chained themselves to one of the trucks with a sign that read, "Never Again". Never again will we allow them to destroy another mountain. Never again will we allow them to destroy another stream. Never again will we allow them to destroy another forest. Never again. Never again.



How can you help? I'm glad you asked that question...

PLEASE FORWARD THIS ON ALL MYSPACES, FACEBOOKS, LISTSERVS, BlOGS, TWITTERS, WORD OF MOUTH, & EMAILS.

Everyone, two teams just got arrested (or are in the process of getting arrested) for non violent civil disobedience against MTR here in WVA. More info below. A third group is preparing to cross the line against strip mining as I type. We need your help.

07:30- Six Mountain Justice activists are locked down to equipment on the Kayford mine site owned by Patriot Mining Company with a banner: "Never again!" They're joined by two support people and an independent photojournalist. A second team has deployed a banner on the Brushy Fork Impoundment that says "West Virginia says no more toxic sludge! The Picket at Pettus is still scheduled for noon today at Pettus, W.Va.--the mouth of Marfork Hollow.
