$8.6 Million #Shell #Lawsuit Threatens #Greenpeace's Ability to #Protest

Source: https://www.commondreams.org/news/greenpeace-shell-lawsuit

"I will stand up in scourt and fight this; and if Shell refuses to stop #drilling, I refuse to stop fighting for #climate #justice," one #activist named in the #suit said.

The most powerful have always tried to abuse the law for their own purposes in order to prevent protests against #injustice. This has forced the protest #movement into the #underground and strengthened #resistance. In the French #Revolution, the powerful were ultimately surprised by the pent-up #anger against the abuse of the #law.

Why the tailored #suit — not ruffles and lace — became synonymous with #power

“The Great Masculine Renunciation overturned the symbols of #status, #sex, and political power established in the late Middle Ages and created a new sartorial vocabulary for the expression of individual personality. It made understatement into a new kind of status #symbol, which required savoir faire as well as ready cash to exhibit. And, because it was a #masculine phenomenon, it excluded #women who sought power and status.”
