Rise by the River to Stop Line 3

Start: Thursday, March 11, 2021 3:00 PM

As soon as the spring melt comes to the rivers of northern Minnesota, Enbridge is poised to drill their Line 3 pipeline under the headwaters of the Mississippi. This pipeline is a climate disaster, a threat to the drinking water we all depend on, and a direct violation of the treaty rights of the Anishinaabe people. With water about to flow, we need people and communities of faith and spiritual practice to come together NOW.

President Biden can stop Line 3. We need to make clear to this administration what leading on climate means — building a world where water is sacred, treaties with Native nations are respected, and where rural communities have access to safe and sustainable jobs.

Indigenous Water Protectors and allies are putting their bodies on the line up north to disrupt construction. Let's show them that they are not alone. Join us on Thursday, March 11, as we Rise by the Mississippi to Stop Line 3!

Starting at 3:00 pm CT, we will gather at the Scenic Overlook park in St. Paul overlooking the river for rally, songs, and prayers to Stop Line 3. We will then march along the river to make our presence felt.

Street parking is available in the St. Paul neighborhoods nearby the overlook park, which is located just north of the Ford Parkway bridge.

Masks and social distancing are expected of all attendees. Bring art and signs. Wear warm clothes and rain boots for whatever weather that March in Minnesota will throw at us. Your RSVP helps us make sure we can fully support everyone who comes. Thanks, and see you there!
