Cove Point 20 - Courting Change

Twenty Cove Point Protectors went to court this week  as a result of non-violent actions they took to raise awareness & build resistance to the construction of a new gas refinery, liquefaction train, power plant and export terminal being built by Dominion Resources. Charged with trespassing, failure to obey a lawful order and disorderly conduct, members of the group to use their day in court to tell their personal stories to the judge and others in the courtroom. Were they listening?
