Occupy the Pipeline : Spectra Showdown Countdown Sunday

We had a good turn out for the Spectra Showdown Sunday rally yesterday. Our campaign is growing as the awareness of what Spectra Energy and Bloomberg are planning for NYC. This pipeline is a HUGE threat to public safety and health.

We had a teach in from Mr. Buck Moorhead, co-founder and vice president of NYH2O

Followed by a Rap song from Monica Hunken.....

Lady Liberty from the OWS Puppet Guild came out to show her disapproval for Spectra's Proposed Pipeline...

We were serenaded by Eve Sibler from Guitarmy...

We had some awesome new activists show up to take the Civil Disobedience training led by Chepe from Cop Watch, Occupy Wall Street and Occucopy.

Chepe led us through a series of exercises and simulated blockades for a hypothetical direct action to stop construction of the pipeline with our bodies.

raising awareness to residents in the area about the dangers of the Spectra Pipeline.....

most don't know about it. Wonder Why? Maybe Mayor Bloomberg can explain to us how this pipeline he supports is good for public health. He says he is concerned about Public Health, he banned smoking in public places. How does this line up with his desire to pump Radon Gas into the homes of millions of NYC residents??

Monica practicing her Cop Whispering skills after an over zealous man walked onto the construction site despite fellow activists & security guards asking him to stop.

She succeeded, but they still put up a new barricade.
