A Victory in the Fight Against Keystone XL

Let this video electrify you, and let it electrify your friends. We didn't just win against a pipeline--we won back the deep sense that when we rise up together, we can change the future. Against impossible odds. Against the biggest most profitable polluters on the planet. We now know that we can win a just world for all--when we take a stand with all we've got. That's the real victory here, and if that's not worth clicking LIKE and SHARE on, what is?

Sparked by the arrests of 1,253 non-violent protesters outside the White House in August, 2011, a vast grassroots campaign ignited and brought together people and environmental organizations from across the continent to fight the proposed Tar Sands Keystone XL Pipeline. On November 6, 2011, over 10,000 protesters surrounded the White House to urge the President to stand up to the oil industry and stop the pipeline.
