Why We Blockade: August 28th TARSANDS Action



Why We Blockade: August 28th Action - YouTube

Published on Aug 28, 2012 by 
On August 28th seven brave Texans risked arrest to stop the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline. This land is their home, and this is their story. These interviews were recorded the day before to explain why these people were willing to take this risk to their safety in order defend their homes and neighbors.

On August 9th, in Livingston Texas, the Transcanada corporation officially began construction of the Keystone XL pipeline which will carry poisonous tar sands from Alberta Canada to the Gulf of Mexico despite overwhelming opposition from landowners and concerned residents, but a broad coalition called the Tar Sands Blockade is organizing to stop the violence and defend our homes in the path of this toxic tar sands pipeline.
