Support the “AVL 4” Appalachians against Pipelines!

On March 4, four of our Asheville, NC, friends were arrested along with three other people after being aggressively chased by police through the woods of Poor Mountain in West Virginia. Only one of these seven has been bailed out so far, with others hopefully released soon—but all with hefty bond amounts and legal expenses ahead. That same day on that mountain, two other people locked themselves to an immobilized car and shut down Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) work for eleven hours.

The repression against MVP resistance has continued to escalate of late. In recent months, local and Indigenous pipeline resisters have been charged with felonies, hit with egregious civil lawsuits, and faced months of jail time for protesting the devastation of this delicate ecosystem. If completed, the MVP will contaminate sensitive water sources for poor communities across West Virginia and Virginia, perpetuating a legacy of resource extraction and disregard for human and nonhuman life in Appalachia.

Our AVL buddies need your support! Let’s shower them with love and solidarity!
