- November 10 – 13th 2023 call to Block Cop City through a mass action. It is useless to wait. With our future on the line and the whole world watching, we’ll take a stand to bend the course of history. If the city government does not halt construction in order to listen to the people, then we will simply have to do it ourselves – a People’s Stop Work Order. Check: blockcopcity.org
