"Climate activists are sometimes depicted as dangerous radicals. But the truly dangerous radicals are the countries that are increasing the production of fossil fuels. Investing in new fossil fuels is moral and economic madness" UN Chief, Antonio Guterres. #FreeJessicaReznicek

“Democracy requires dissent and our state’s officials should not be exposing individuals to potentially decades in prison for engaging in protest,” said Christopher Bruce, policy & advocacy director at @ACLU of Georgia. aclu.org/press-releases…
The use of both DT and RICO charges against activists sets a dangerous precedent for free speech in GA and beyond. Protesting is not criminal activity, and organizing is not criminal conspiracy. If they are successful in these charges, democracy itself will be in jeopardy. [4/6]
SCHR is reaching out to attorneys representing people named in the indictment & locating attorneys for those without counsel. Our current priority: ensure those indicted are released on bond, esp. given the horrendous culture at the Fulton Jail where 9 people have died this year.
Jessica Reznieck's case shows how the U.S. "would rather incarcerate someone trying to slow down the death march toward extinction" than take legislative action to curb climate change writes Matt Bernico. sojo.net/articles/chris…
It’s been 2 years since Jessica Reznicek was incarcerated for defending the land, water, and people. Read all about it in my new piece from @Sojourners! Also, follow @FreeJessRez and sign their petition to demand Jessica’s freedom. sojo.net/articles/chris…
The U.S. labeled Jessica Reznieck a terrorist for trying to slow down the planet's death march toward extinction. buff.ly/488XLlt
@SDonziger @rkurland93 @FreeJessRez 1/The terrorist designation opens the door, in turn, for placement in #solitary or a #CMU, although to the best of my knowledge CMUs have exclusively held men thus far. This is one of the least known aspects of US #WarOnTerror: the fed prison system (BOP) can arbitrarily …
Today marks Jess second yr in prison for taking climate action & protecting the fresh water of Iowa from #DAPL. Join the people she has served the unhoused with, took a vow of poverty with, and lived in community with today by posting a video/pic of your own. #FreeJessicaReznicek
August 11th will mark two years since Jessica has been in prison. Will you join the #RagingGrannies & nearly 18,000 others who have signed her petition in demanding @JoeBiden #FreeJessicaReznicek? Post a video or picture this week in support! Be sure to tag us.
Two years ago today my friend and climate hero Jessica Reznicek was jailed as a "terrorist" for vandalizing the Dakota Access pipeline. An autocratic judge – Rebecca Ebinger – imposed a barbaric 8-year sentence. Sign the petition to free Jessica.⤵️ supportjessicareznicek.com

#JessicaReznicek has been in federal prison for 2 years. Her sentence was unjust - and now the InJustice Department is threatening more climate activists with outrageous prison terms. Arrest oil & gas CEOs, not activists! Water protectors are not terrorists! @FreeJessRez

"They're willing to throw out the entire process in the city's charter that permits these kinds of initiatives... simply because they want to ensure voters cannot have their say at the ballot box about Cop City.” -SCHR Public Policy Director @twrobertslaw time.com/6312383/cop-ci…
“The state has shown that they don’t have a meaningful way to respond to what the people are showing that they want, and they are choosing to use the legal process in an essentially violent way to target protesters.” -SCHR Movement Policy Counsel Devin Franklin @BrotherInLawATL
The state of Georgia is bringing RICO charges against 61 activists who oppose the construction of a police training facility known as “Cop City” in Atlanta. Attorney Devin Franklin of @southerncenter breaks down what we know about the case.
After a summer full of extreme weather and shattered records, the world is still gearing up towards climate catastrophe. We need climate activists now more than ever. On Sept 15th we’ll once again strike for climate justice, to #EndFossilFuels More info at fridaysforfuture.org
This is unprecedented and extremely concerning, and we’re tracking the situation closely.
BREAKING: More than five dozen people were reportedly indicted on RICO charges — as well as some on domestic terrorism charges — over the ongoing protests to halt construction of Atlanta’s planned $90M police training center.
The state is throwing RICO charges at those who oppose Cop City. But guess what? The people are throwing a RICO right back: the people's RICO. Cop City is the conspiracy. Capitalism is the conspiracy. Full video and more info at thepeoplesrico.org
BREAKING: In one of the great modern abuses of police power, prosecutors in Georgia filed a bogus RICO case against 61 Cop City activists. Pathetic attempt to silence a powerful movement. The real racketeers are officials who violate the law to persecute their own citizens.⤵️
To help the Solidarity Fund 3 and everyone else who's been arrested for exercising their right to protest, please consider donating to tinyurl.com/yeyjva6e If you have been targeted and need legal assistance, please contact @southerncenter Until all are free! [6/6]
The solution to repression is solidarity: to stand up for what is right and to protect each other in doing so. We look forward to fighting these allegations in court, and to the day when the State is forced to admit the baseless nature of these charges. [5/6]
The use of both DT and RICO charges against activists sets a dangerous precedent for free speech in GA and beyond. Protesting is not criminal activity, and organizing is not criminal conspiracy. If they are successful in these charges, democracy itself will be in jeopardy. [4/6]
We know these charges will not hold up in court, and we know that they are not intended to: the point is to shut down the social movement currently taking place in Atlanta, and to send a message that anyone advocating for social change could be a target. [3/6]
As if Domestic Terrorism charges weren't enough -- or the arrests of bail fund organizers, or activists putting up flyers -- this move seeks to paint the broad spectrum of community members opposed to the Cop City project as conspirators in a vast criminal enterprise. [2/6]
As we've long expected, the State of Georgia today issued a RICO indictment against 60+ activists and others in their latest attempt at shutting down the right to protest in Atlanta. Three Solidarity Fund organizers are included in this indictment. [thread]
Allegedly these criminal acts occurred the day George Floyd was murdered. So it’s not really related to Stop Cop City. It’s also retaliatory, in a long line of institutionally retaliatory actions from @CityofAtlanta & Georgia law enforcement & state officials. @atlanta_press
This morning the Attorney General’s office filed RICO indictments for 60 people alleged to be part of the Stop Cop City Movement.
We are urgently seeking licensed GA attorneys to represent community members and fulfill our mission to protect the right to dissent. The Bridge will compensate retained attorneys. If interested in joining the First Amendment Lawyer Bridge, please contact us at [email protected].
If you are an attorney currently representing protesters, please contact us at [email protected] to discuss representation. If you are a protester named in this indictment who has an attorney already, please contact them immediately.
SCHR is reaching out to attorneys representing people named in the indictment & locating attorneys for those without counsel. Our current priority: ensure those indicted are released on bond, esp. given the horrendous culture at the Fulton Jail where 9 people have died this year.
Jessica Reznieck's case shows how the U.S. "would rather incarcerate someone trying to slow down the death march toward extinction" than take legislative action to curb climate change writes Matt Bernico. sojo.net/articles/chris…
