On the 22nd of March, a group of mostly Black Women got inside Atlanta’s City Hall. Once inside, they dropped a banner and chanted demands that the city drop their appeal of a so far failed court challenge to the referendum to cancel the lease on Weelaunee Forest.

Police removed the banner, but this did not stop the rest of the protest

If the referendum reaches the ballot is is considered almost certain to pass. Contractors and especially investors might start pulling out at that point, seeing no chance of finishing.
