    S5 E23 Popcorn Activism

    Handing out popcorn can get you arrested these days, especially if you do it in a bank.   In this episode I chat with three activists who did just that over a year ago. Then, earlier this year they went to court to argue that they had to do it to prevent great harm from happening, that is to prevent the bank's connection to future fossil fuel extraction. Activists often get represented as ratbags or trouble makers, disrupting things just for the sake of it, but what you will hear today is much more in alignment with the vast majority of my experience of activists – which is people who have deeply considered what they are doing and why and feel that taking action is one of the only avenues left open to them to effect change. Guests: Bernard Tonkin, Laura Levetan and Dean Bridgefoot Go to saltgrasspodcast.com for links related to this episode.
