Steven Donziger's unique case has been discussed in the media and made headlines in newspapers even though, still not enough in my opinion.
Steven was the key lawyer on the team that won the 9.5 $B judgement against Chevron in Ecuador after Chevron - formerly Texaco - dumped billions of gallons of toxic waste into the Ecuadorian Amazon, poisoning the ecosystem, rural communities and indigenous peoples, creating an "apocalyptic nightmare", as Steven has referred to it and Chevron has yet to pay a penny.
Furthermore they went after Steven, suing him as retaliation for being part in this historic win.

In this episode I am Talking to his defense lawyer Ronald Kuby, who helped me get an even clearer picture and explained some of the many questionable and unlawful scenarios of this case, this first corporate prosecution in the US and why and how Chevron is targeting Steven.
📽Here are a few YouTube videos that can help you get a clearer picture if you have never heard of this case before:

This is a case that has never been seen before, it is messy and unscrupulous and important to know and talk about.
So share Steven's website, videos and podcasts about the case with friends and family to create awareness.
It is incredible and scary, the lengths corporations will go to, to protect their image and punish the one's who are courageous enough to step up, who are trying to protect earth, land and people from these destructive immoral crimes that are committed in the name of profit.
The future must look different.
People and planet over profit🔊💚
Thank you for listening
I appreciate your eager ears💚
Cheers,
Stella
