On April 18, 2011, the Power Shift "Make Big Polluters Pay" rally was held at Lafayette Square in Washington,D.C. During this rally of mainly college students, roads were shut down as they marched to the Chamber of Commerce, BP lobby headquarters, GenOn main offices, then looped back to Lafayette Square calling for 'climate justice'. The rally followed a weekend of training seminars and workshops on people such as the Koch Brothers and speeches by the likes of Al Gore, Obama's former 'Green Jobs Czar' Van Jones, and the head of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Lisa Jackson. The Media Research Center caught up with some of the attendees. Here is what they had to say.

Good on these proactive, intelligent and informed people. It's those who make the effort to study and understand who need to be listened to, not self-interested capitalist parasites or self-appointed arm-chair expert wankers and conspiracy theory quacks.
