EARTH DAY 2020 LIVE
STRIKE, DIVEST, AND VOTE FOR OUR FUTURE.


To mark the 50th anniversary of Earth Day this April 22, Divest RVA and RVA Interfaith Climate Justice League are joining earthdaylive2020.org online for a three-day livestream.

Join us for a day long livestream beginning at 9am ET. You’ll hear from activists, experts, politicians (maybe even a few celebrities) and learn how you can help turn up the heat on the largest funders of climate chaos.​

​Even if we’re stuck at home, we can still change the world. Join EarthDayLive2020.org for three days of action — from teach-ins, musical performances, divestment, and more. All you need is an internet connection.

Day 1 / Wednesday April 22

​
We will demonstrate our collective power and unity through community building and storytelling. Originally a day of mass mobilization, we are leaning into healing and togetherness to provide comfort and interfaith based inspiration during this time of unknown. As with all three days, we are centering the stories and voices of frontline, Indigenous, and POC leaders.


Day 2 / Thursday, April 23 

Stop the Money Pipeline will target financial institutions across the country. Here in Richmond, Virginia we will focus specifically on Wells Fargo, Bank of America, and US Bank. Bringing attention to the fact that these banks are complicit in funding, insuring, and investing in the climate crisis, and that stopping this money pipeline is one of the most important ways we can address the climate emergency.

Day 3 / Friday, April 24 
​

We will focus on the urgency of political change through a nationwide youth voter registration day, including by holding a digital, relational voter registration challenge to see which region of the country can register the most voters, and call on elected officials to support our demands.
