Michigan: Banner Drop Against Line 5

Following report and photo was originally published on the Earth First! Journal Newswire.

On September 3, eco-defenders in the Lower Peninsula of Michigan wanted to make sure the mass of drivers heading home from one of the most popular weekends ‘Up North’ were reminded of the continued struggle in the straits of Mackinac. Serving as a reminder of the messages shared by Anishnaabeg and environmental activists along the route of Enbridge’s Line 5 which continues to threaten the Great Lakes, the group dropped a banner alongside Michigan’s main south bound highway, which parallels the pipeline reading “No Line 5, No Compromise”. In defense of Mother Earth, in solidarity with Camp Anishnaabek.
