Citizens Bank Standout in Newton Centre
July 24 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm EDT
Citizens Bank has been a major financial funder of two private prison companies: CoreCivic and The GEO Group. These private companies have been holding thousands of undocumented immigrants, many of whom are illegally detained. We demand that Citizens Bank drop all financial ties with CoreCivic and The GEO Group.

The Jewish Alliance of Law and Social Action (JALSA) is hosting regular (every two weeks) peaceful, non-violent standouts outside of Citizens Bank’s location in Newton Centre. We want to promote awareness of Citizens Bank immoral investing and we want to encourage passers-by to move their money away from Citizens Bank.
We hope that you’ll be able to join us. We have leverage over Citizens Bank – let’s use our power!
A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
