Join Refund CA coalition for a march on San Francisco's financial district on Thursday Sept. 29 from 3-6pm.
The goal of the coalition is to shift the debate of the economic crisis around whether the budget crisis should be solved with spending cuts or new revenue, to a debate about who should pay to solve the crisis- students and workers, or Wall Street.
A week of escalating actions throughout the week, including a bank divestment action, and a "clean-up" action, are being planned for Monday Sept. 26 - Thursday Sept. 29th, targeting Wells Fargo, Bank of American, and possibly Chase Bank and concluding with a march on SF's financial district on Thursday the 29th.
The main message/demand is: "Big banks crashed our economy and destroyed our communities. Budget cuts threaten our schools, libraries, and social services. We bailed out the banks. Now they need to pay."

i have been out at the actions that have been leading up to the big march this week. they have been well organized and clear. getting inside banks and confronting bankers with direct action. this march is going to be great and will show the huge diversity that is affected by banking policy and hyper-capitalism. come out!!!
