A Fundraiser Dinner & Music with Tim DeChristopher, who as Bidder 70, disrupted an illegitimate Bureau of Land Management oil and gas auction in December of 2008, by outbidding oil companies for parcels around Arches and Canyonlands National Parks in Utah.
His actions and 21 month imprisonment earned him a national and international media presence, which he has used as a platform to spread the urgency of the climate crisis and the need for bold, confrontational action to create a just and healthy world. Tim used his prosecution as an opportunity to organize the climate justice organization Peaceful Uprising in Salt Lake City, and most recently, the Climate Disobedience Center. More about Tim here.
Tim will be in Seattle supporting the Delta5 Trial. Please join us for an evening with Tim, dinner and fundraiser. Bring your questions about civil disobedience, the necessity defence or the delta 5 trial for Tim!
Also, the awesome alt-folk duo Animals of Grace will be performing!
All proceeds will go to the Delta5’s legal expenses. You can directly donate to the Delta5 here: https://actionnetwork.org/fundraising/support-the-delta-five
Food and beverages will be provided, no alcohol!
