Act Out! Episode 15 - Seattle’s Best Pt. 1: From Lawrence Lessig to #ShellNo seahorses

Act Out! Episode 15 - Seattle’s Best Pt. 1: From Lawrence Lessig to #ShellNo seahorses
Wed, 6/10/2015 - by Eleanor Goldfield
This article originally appeared on Occupy.com

This week we’re bringing you Seattle’s Best, on land and on sea, starting with the Seattle premiere of the documentary "Killswitch: The Battle to Control the Internet," where Lawrence Lessig and Marianne Williamson talked money in politics to a packed Town Hall. Next up, #ShellNo continued their fight against the Arctic Destroyer, this time with the help of a seahorse, an Arctic Angel and a solar-powered barge. Finally, this could be the week that the House votes on Fast Track, the fast forward button for corporate trade deals. We’ll give you tools to help stop this train wreck as artist Stephanie McMillan gives you inspiration to keep fighting.
