Mindful Rebels are working alongside people of all faiths and none to have a peaceful presence and shared witness to the sacredness of all of life at the Barclays Global Financial Services Conference. The three-day conference is attended by C-level executives and investors representing financial institutions from both the United States and around the world. Notably, on the first day of the conference, between 12:30 PM and 2:00 PM, executives from Chase and KKR will be delivering presentations. Mindful Rebels will be urging these attendees to stop financing new fossil fuels projects worldwide. It's important to note that this is a non-arrestable action. People of all faiths, backgrounds and spiritualities are welcome to join.
