University of Pittsburgh student Sage Lincoln confronted former
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton at a rally, asking her whether she'd
reject donations from anti-fracking lobbyists.
In response to her
question, Lincoln received laughter from Clinton, telling her that her
ties to the fracking lobby have been "debunked."
We are Sacrifice Zones: Native Leader Says Toxic North Dakota Fracking Fuels Violence Against Women
Please Share This! You will NEVER hear this on the news and PEOPLE need to WAKEUP and see the TRUTH
"
Ever since we’ve had the oil industry enter, we’ve had these jobs that were created, but there were 11,000 jobs created and over 10,000 people that came into our state. And we’ve had violence against women increase by 168 percent, particularly in the area of rape. We have 14-, 15- and 16-year-old girls that are willingly going into man camps and selling themselves."
"We call them that because there are literally thousands of men living in these hovels. They’re like FEMA trailers or RV parks or wherever they can find space, that used to be a wheat field or a sunflower field, is now an oil-fracking operation. And so we’ve seen an increase greatly of crime and violence, drug abuse. I have buried two young girls, my friends, this last year, who got addicted to the heroin, because we now have organized crime.
As far as the environmental toxins, we won’t even feel the effects for 20 years. And I’m so worried that at this COP21 my two-and-a-half-year-old daughter won’t have a say, but she will be experiencing the worst impacts. And it just doesn’t make any sense to me that this is the 21st COP and we are considered sacrifice zones in my community."

Currently at an action with 196 chairs taken hostage successfully by activists from BNP Banks around Paris to represent the number of delegate countries represented at #COP21 they took the banks chairs because their subsidiaries are hiding money in tax havens. If they close their tax havens then the activists will give their chairs back.
