…When you Leave Ours!” – Grassy Narrows to Weyerhaeuser

Breaking News from Seattle today as activists from Grassy Narrows and RAN occupied the roof of a model home at Quadrant Homes’ Bothell Development, unfurling a large banner reading “Weyerhaeuser: We’ll Leave Your Home When You Leave Ours.” The plan is to occupy the house until Weyerhaeuser CEO Steve Rogel agrees to cancel contracts for all wood supplies originating in Grassy Narrows’ traditional territory.

Stay tuned as more action unfolds!

Thank you for your cooperation today. Our goal was a safe conclusion and you helped us achieve it. Ms. Riley, I’m ready to trade my pictures for your teams video whenever you guys are ready.

If you guys were serious about a copy of the video, contact me on my email or call the sheriff’s office and ask for me.

Great work everybody! The messaging for this action was bang on and pretty funny. Love it. Did local media pick up on the story?
