In Brattleboro on April 24, two people were arrested for non-violent civil disobedience. The Valley Post was there. The protesters blocked the entrance to Citizen's Bank, which is “helping for-profit prison companies get the cash they need to lock more people away in ICE detention.” That quote is from:

In Brattleboro, police arrested Dan DeWalt and Tim Kipp. In a voice phone interview on April 29, DeWalt told the Valley Post, “We aren't going to allow corporations to do business as usual when they're doing evil. We don't have anything against the workers or the customers.”

DeWalt and Kipp are asking the public to support them at their initial court date: June 2 at 8:30 a.m. at Windham Superior court in Brattleboro. DeWalt can be reached at 1dandewalt@gmail.com.
