221 - A Touch of Magic

About this episode

The episode discusses a creative protest against fossil fuel investors, featuring humor and activism.

The process of rally and march and rally and march could be transformed by a complete surprise, by subversive humor… The Church of Stop Shopping preached and sang for a 24 hours on Earth Day, midnight to midnight facing the grand doorway of the top fossil fuel investor, JPMorgan Chase. The big oil bankers seeing us in their windows may have found us frivolous, or annoying or even unnerving…. We think it may stick in their heads. Our activist friends joined us in running around and around the monster building dressed like old-style bankers, tophats and vests and pin stripes
