As the world’s largest investor in fossil fuels and one of the worst when it comes to asking portfolio companies to do better, @Vanguard_Group especially has a responsibility to do what it can to invest for a safe and healthy future. #Faiths4ClimateJustice #SunDayofAction #SUNDay

So, in the afternoon, many more of us showed up at @Vanguard_Group to rally in support of those arrested and reiterate the request for Vanguard leaders to meet with campaign representatives. We shared song, speeches, and silent worship. @afsc_org @StopMoneyPipe

In the morning, five of our F/friends went to the office building where @Vanguard_Group executives work to ask that CEO Salim Ramji meet with representatives of the #VanguardSOS campaign. Instead of speaking with them, Vanguard had the group arrested. https://t.co/tAhal8J3E2

When asked again for a meeting, Vanguard had the group, ages 22 to 72, arrested by local police. Vanguard, why are you scared of people in matching t-shirts? 🤔 #VanguardSOS #Faiths4ClimateJustice #SunDayofAction #SUNDay

Big finance and tech corporations are fueling climate catastrophe, genocide, and the rise of authoritarianism. How can we hold these profiteers accountable, isolate their influence, and make them change?

Without the hundreds of billions of dollars that banks & investors provide coal, oil & gas, these polluting industries couldn’t continue on with business as usual. We demand change from those financing fossil fuel corporations, like @Vanguard_Group, No. 1 fossil fuel investor.

At the same time, people around the country are sending emails to Ramji, asking him to meet with representatives of the Vanguard S.O.S. campaign, and others gathered virtually for a Quaker Meeting for Worship holding this protest – and Vanguard leadership – in the light.
