Celebrities are lending their voices to the opposition of the Byhalia Connection pipeline project.
See story here for more details on the project.
Some of the biggest names to tweet against the project include actors Danny Glover, Giancarlo Esposito, Jane Fonda, Piper Perabo, and Tim Guinee. Former vice president Al Gore also asked “Memphians and fellow Tennesseans” to “stand together against the Byhalia pipeline.”
Environmental racism, classism and injustice is happening right now in Memphis. @Byhalia Pipeline in Memphis, TN is threatening the predominantly Black city’s drinking water for their crude oil pipeline. Tell @MEM_Council to Oppose the @Byhalia Pipeline w/ @MemphisCAP_org

Building more fossil fuel pipelines is reckless and many proposed routes are racist. I stand with those opposing the Keystone, DAPL, MVP, Line 3, and Byhalia pipelines.

Memphians & fellow Tennesseans: Let’s stand together against the #Byhalia pipeline, which would further increase global warming pollution while threatening Black neighborhoods and drinking water sources. I urge you to learn more tonight: https://t.co/q6pZCEKewv
