Description 1 online resource (1 video file (57 minutes)) : sound, color Summary In the course of screening Necessity Part I: Oil, Water & Climate Resistance at schools, activist events, and festivals, the team began production on a second part, titled Necessity Part II: Rails, Rivers and the Thin Green Line. Also feature-length, the film is set along the rivers of Oregon and follows activists as they enlist the necessity defense in a jury trial after being arrested for a direct action at Zenith Energy in Portland. This story of climate resistance in the Pacific Northwest brings into view a historical landscape of tribal leaders, Indigenous activists and white allies as they resist oil trains and trucks carrying these highly inflammable products through treaty lands. In following the path of oil-by-rail and oil resistance along the Columbia, we revisit lessons of the New Deal era of building massive dams and what climate activists take from that era in thinking about a Green New Deal Notes Originally produced as a motion picture in 2021 Title from title screen (Alexander Street, viewed April 15, 2024) Credits Editor, Emily von W.
