250 take over British Museum in “festival of protest” against BP sponsorship

The British Museum is sponsored by planet-wrecking oil villains BP. Ugh. Our response? Take over the museum for an entire day. Sixteen different action groups and hundreds of performers staged an all-day "protest festival" including powerful poetry, eloquent 12-year-olds, guerrilla Shakespeare, simultaneous banner-drops and even bagpipes. It all culminated with a spectacular mass flashmob action. Please watch and share this film to tell our cultural institutions to #dropbp! You can also sign the petition at www.dropbp.org. Performances also took place at three other BP-sponsored institutions on the same day - Tate Britain, the Royal Opera House and the National Portrait Gallery. All four organisations have deals with BP that are due to expire in 2017. Read the full story of the day here: http://www.artnotoil.org.uk/blog/art-...
