Montreal: Banner Drop for Weelaunee Forest Defenders

Action report on banner drop in Montreal in solidarity with the struggle to stop Cop City in so-called Atlanta, GA. Originally posted to Montreal Counter-Info. 

Militarization and expansion of police power is a global threat. The fight back against the Cop City development project in Atlanta mirrors other local struggles everywhere. This solid and long standing frontline struggle represents how the destruction of natural habitats is interconnected with state violence and repression.

At the edge of Weelaunee forest, every cop pushed back with fireworks and every piece of construction equipment set ablaze is welcomed with cheer from companions all over turtle island and beyond.

We made and dropped this banner in Montréal in solidarity with all the arrestees in Atlanta, even the innocent ones. We will never forget Tortuguita.
