At today's event, actress Shailene Woodley urged folks to take the following actions:

Visit www.standwithstandingrock.net -- official website of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe -- and take action there, including signing the letter to President Obama;

#BankExit -- Beyond Nuclear Launch Partner, actress Susan Sarandon, has helped spearhead the campaign to get folks to boycott banks funding DAPL, including divestment -- withdrawing their savings and closing their accounts with those banks, and instead opening new accounts with credit unions (and here is a list of contact info. for decision makers at those banks -- contact them and urge their diverstment from DAPL);

Phoning the White House during business hours (at White House comment line 202-456-1111), and writing a letter to President Obama, urging him to block DAPL.
