SUMMARY:'Bad River' Free Screening and Earth Justice Panel

A Freewill offering will be taken to support the Bad River “Defend the Bad River” non-profit group. Learn more about the film: https://www.badriverfilm.com/ \nFollowing the movie\, we will be joined by three panelists who will answer questions about the fight to stop Line 5 and protect our waters.
