DIRECT ACTION & RALLY: CHEVRON RICHMOND REFINERY 11am Rally at Judge G. Carroll Park W. Cutting Blvd & Garrard Blvd, Richmond, CA 1pm nonviolent direct action at Chevron Refinery 841 Chevron Way, Richmond (periodic shuttle buses from Richmond BART) The purpose of this action is shut the Chevron refinery down for the day, and to support community efforts to stop Chevron from expanding its refinery, which will increase pollution and cause asthma, cancer and rising death rates in surrounding communities. Chevron is driving the war and occupation in Iraq, refining over a million barrels of stolen Iraqi oil in Richmond a month, and actively lobbying for the privatization of Iraq¹s oil fields so companies like Chevron can seize control of them. Join us, and help send a clear message to Chevron: Stop stealing Iraqi oil, and stop polluting our communities!
