CCB Sunday, December 15 @11AM:
The Community Church of Boston presents:
“The 2024 Sacco-Vanzetti Memorial Award to”
Steven Donziger
David Rothauser will read from his docudrama
“Diary of Sacco and Vanzetti.”
Steven Donziger is a U.S. human rights attorney who helped communities in Ecuador’s Amazon win a historic multibillion-dollar pollution judgment against Chevron for the dumping of billions of gallons of cancer-causing oil waste onto Indigenous ancestral lands. Since the judgment issued in 2013, Chevron has used dozens of law firms and 2000 lawyers to carry out a demonization campaign targeting Steven to send a message of intimidation to all environmental advocates. Steven served 993 days of detention at home and in prison after being prosecuted directly by a Chevron law firm in the nation’s first corporate prosecution; he still faces the threat of additional jail time after he appealed an order to turn over confidential information held by his Indigenous clients. More information on Steven’s website here.
Music by
Charlie King (“Two Good Arms”) and
David Rovics (“When Chevron Came to Ecuador”)
(Charlie & David will join us virtually)
