[CRNMC] Martin Luther King and David Braun

Right, 

No one got back to me with any interest in the tour, but I think its possible to do a leg up there after the climate march, if there is any interest from anyone. David can be reached above, he’s cc’d here. 

Thanks! Shannon

> Hope you’re enjoying this Martin Luther King Jr. weekend. Here in Fort Bragg we’re going to have a great celebration on Monday, Jan. 19, at Trinity Lutheran Church. Gather at 11 for the march; a great meal and entertainment starts at noon, the program—a panel comprised of Mendocino and Fort Bragg young people talking about racism. Some of the panel are on the Mendocino basketball teams (I Can’t Breathe tee-shirts).

He?d love to plan a stop for Mendocino, but it would require someone(s) from CRNMC working with him on an event. I thought it might be a good way to publicize what you?ve done, and get some community feedback on next steps, in addition to driving the rights-based ordinance further into the community.  If you decide you want to do it, and would like my help, please let me know.

And because of this, we now are well positioned to not only ban fracking, but to also dramatically turn the tide against fossil fuels in the great state of California, and usher in the 100% renewable energy future. If Jerry Brown wants to be a real climate leader, he can either put his money where his mouth is, and push back against the oil industry by stopping refinery expansion, blocking dangerous bomb trains, and putting a ban on fracking and other forms of dangerous and toxic fossil fuel extraction, or he can keep paying lip service to our ideals.  Enough is enough.  If Jerry Brown won?t take the initiative to protect the water, air, food, climate and communities of California, we will.

We?ll be highlighting the different ways the fossil fuel industry is ravaging our communities, our health, our water, and our future.   The tour will be made up of several evening panel discussion events showcasing how everyday Californians are in the fight of their lives against all aspects of the fossil fuel economy including extraction, infrastructure, chemicals and toxicity, as well as the industry?s assault on sustainable businesses and innovation.  We?ll be exploring the intersectionality between our movements, and aligning our energies behind one common goal:  A truly clean energy future where our children are not poisoned for toxic profits.   And with so many communities currently being adversely affected, combined with all those who will undoubtedly be affected by the impending climate crisis, collectively, all Californians have a stake in this fight and a reason to step up.
