Join us for the Bay Area premier of
Growing Resistance
and panel discussion 

Growing Resistance, takes you to ground zero of extraction in California and shows first-hand how the drought, fracking, and climate change are impacting communities and exacerbating existing health issues, water scarcity, and poor air and water quality.

As the film shows, the Central Valley’s history of resistance hasn’t faded. Communities are rising up against the direct impacts they face and a hypocritical Governor who claims to be a “climate leader.”

Don’t miss the premier of Growing Resistance followed by a Q&A with the film’s director and four other panelist who are helping lead this movement. You’ll hear from experts in the field of law, community organizing, and public health.

All proceeds will go directly to The Center on Race, Poverty and the Environment (CRPE) who are working in the Central Valley to ensure that all people have the right to live, work, play and pray in a healthy environment, regardless of their race, place or income.

The film interviews residents, activists, nurses, and lawyers to tell the story of extraction happening on farmland, near homes, and next to schools.

Get your ticket now for the premier of Growing Resistance in Oakland on March 13.

This is a crucial year to break California’s dependence on fossil fuels. Momentum is on our side and the time is now to double down on our efforts to keep fossil fuels in the ground.

Together we’ve built a strong movement and celebrated some crucial victories, but we still have to keep pushing. In May, we’ll be taking bold action against fossil fuels around the world and here in California.

Join us on March 13 to hear more and watch the film that tells the story of fracking in California.
