SUMMARY:ANTI-CHEVRON MONTH protest ride
CONTACT:Revolutionary Bicycle Club
DESCRIPTION:For over a decade\, activists around the globe have come 
 together in May for Anti-Chevron Month. This May\, we're heeding the call 
 to action by getting on our bikes and going on a spirited protest tour of 
 Chevrons around town. \n\nWe'll meet in Irving Park at 2pm and roll out 
 promptly at 2:30. We'll stop for mini protests at 3 Chevron locations over
  the course of a 5 mile ride\, and finish out with a bonus activity at a 
 mystery location in NW.\n\nThis is our third Chevron protest ride\, and 
 this time we're asking riders to bring their big feelings and 
 revolutionary joy in the form of whatever noisemaking device they prefer\,
  whether that's their clapping hands\, a pot or pan\, or an impassioned 
 speech to give to the crowd. We'll have a big speaker and a mic–don't be 
 shy!\n\nPlease also bring your signs\, flags\, banners and keffiyehs! 
 \n\nThis will be an easy-paced no-drop ride\; all wheels/all riders 
 welcome. There won't be a store stop but there will be vegan food and 
 drinks at our end location. \n\nA FEW REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD JOIN US IN 
 PROTESTING CHEVRON: \n–Chevron is the perpetrator of the worst oil-based 
 disaster in history: the intentional mass dumping of 16 billion gallons of
  toxic wastewater and oil into the Ecuadorian Amazon\n–Chevron produces 
 more greenhouse gas emissions than nearly any other investor-owned 
 company\n–Chevron is supporting/profiting from the genocide in Gaza\, and 
 is one of the biggest targets of the Palestinian-led BDS (boycott\, 
 divest\, sanction) movement \n–Chevron spends millions upon millions of 
 dollars annually on lobbying politicians to prevent any meaningful climate
  change legislation from happening (democracy and capitalism are 
 incompatible\, y'all)\n\n***Journalists who wish to come along on our 
 rides are encouraged to contact us in advance. Please DO NOT publicly post
  identifiable pictures of attendees without getting consent.***\n\nSee you
  there!\nMeet at 2\, ride 2:30\nEnds at
