“@Yale was slow to move when it came to South Africa...and not decisive enough when forced to do so. We are at such a decisive moment again today. Yale must and should do better” -Daniel Magaziner, Professor of History #YaleIsComplicit #CancelTheDebt

Yale has 78 million directly invested in fracking corporation Antero. Our generation deserves better. @Yale, stop financing climate destruction. #YaleIsComplicit #DivestYale yaledailynews.com/blog/2018/… @billmckibben @350CT @350 @StudentsDivest

“@Yale’s investment in Puerto Rican debt...disproportionately harms the lives of its Puerto Rican students by contributing to a long history of abuse of Puerto Ricans. This behavior is appalling.” We demand climate justice. #CancelTheDebt #YaleIsComplicit yaledailynews.com/blog/2018/…

.@Ocasio2018: "When we talk about a transition we need to talk about a just transition, whether that's people who need to leave their homes in Puerto Rico or coal miners."
Thank you MD State Senator @CherylKagan (Class of '83) for taking a stand against fossil fuels! We need more in power to stand up like you! xitter.cf/CherylKagan/status/842…
Proud to speak out against #fracking. Kudos to Garrett Co & @DeepCreekPR for speaking loudly: #DontFrackMD bit.ly/2nnILJI #MDGA17
Another section of the pipeline was temporarily halted, hopefully this will lead to a permanent halt.
