Join us for a virutal screening of VS GOLIATH: Port Arthur. What happens when ordinary people take on billion-dollar industries?

Join us for a free national screening series of VS. GOLIATH—a powerful new documentary series following everyday people across the United States as they stand up to the fossil fuel industry and fight for the future of their communities. We will be screening the 4 episodes on the first Tuesday of the month from July-October.

Port Arthur, Texas is the biggest oil and petrochemical hub you’ve probably never heard of. John Beard Jr. worked in an oil refinery there for decades, as did his father before him, in the refinery town of Port Arthur, Texas. After retiring, John watches Port Arthur get hollowed out economically, while his neighbors die from pollution-related illness, as more dirty plants appear and expand. Experiencing the climate-driven devastation wrought by Hurricane Harvey, John is called to fight back. He becomes a leading opponent of fossil fuels in his community, as he takes on the latest extractive frontier threatening Port Arthur and the world: liquid natural gas export terminals.

All across the country, members of Sierra Club, Food and Water Watch, People Vs. Fossil Fuels, Center for Biological Diversity, Power Up: The Movement Against Fossil Fuels, Institute for Policy Studies, Third Act, Climate Hawks Vote, 198 Methods, 350 Local Groups and many more will come together in living rooms, offices, and in homes to watch this powerful series of ordinary people going up against the fossil fuel industry. Join us for the first of 4 screenings on the first Tuesday night of the month in July, August, September, October.
