If you’re in the US and not following what’s happening in Atlanta, Georgia, it is very chilling.

Basic organizing and mutual aid is being called terrorism and bail fundraisers are being charged with racketeering.

And this is after police killed an Indigenous activist on site.

This is the next level of criminalizing protest. All because people have been trying to save a patch of forest slated for a massive militarized training facility for police.

A big thank you to everyone in Atlanta Georgia who organized, protested, spoke at city council
 in attempt to save the Weelaunee forest. I know there are thousands of you.

I’m sorry your city council did not listen.

I still believe in you, and in the trees. And rest well, indigenous activist Tortuguita. You should not have been killed trying.

I am recording a memorial to our trans siblings murdered since 2020. I don't process info in videos well, and I haven't found the pronunciation of the name of the protestor, Tortuguita, murdered by police during the Cop City protests.

Does anyone know how they vocalized it themselves? I would really appreciate an accurate description so I don't get it wrong. Also, a link to an audio recording would do me as well! TY!

Hundreds of people have swarmed the City Council chambers, demanding to speak out against the project. Upwards of 500 people are chanting, "Tortuga vive, la lucha sigue" and "Stop Cop city!"

Despite the brutal assassination of and the use of domestic terrorism charges, the movement to remains strong and people won't stop until the project is canceled.
