Huge anti-5G rally set for 8 AM Fri 6/28, Los Angeles City Hall




The dockworkers (in the Teamsters union) are really upset about 5G being set up at the Port of Los Angeles, they don't want the rf exposures nor automation which will do away with jobs. Los Angeles is busily setting up antennas all over the dock areas, and allegedly this is not in their Master Plan. About 500 of them expected to show up at City Hall in Los Angeles. See attached flyer for details. Am in communication with one of those setting this up, via our FB page Stop 5G California. www.facebook.com/stop5gca for more info

If you are in the Los Angeles area and wish to be a speaker at the rally or at a meeting at city hall related to this (the latter I have little info on yet) contact me. They'd like scientists and doctors "in the know about the rf risks" to speak if possible.

I would love to see the Teamsters nationally take a position against 5G.

Activists protest against 5G towers




A group says they are nervous because of potential health risks linked to 5G

BETHESDA, Md. - New technology has some people making noise in Montgomery County - a group of activists is worried about technology advancements interfering with people’s health.

It’s part of a nationwide movement calling on officials not to put 5G cell towers near their homes because of health risks.
"This is an increasing environmental exposure and we don’t consent to it," said Theodora Scarato, Environmental Health Trust executive director.

A group of protestors met in front of a Verizon store - with signs and brochures screaming 5G has got to go

“Fast speeds and downloading video fast but they are not aware that is going to bring higher levels of radiation directly into our homes,” said Scarato.

There are dozens of 5G towers spread throughout parts of Montgomery County.

Verizon says 5G is faster and can lead to future innovations but activists here say it’s not worth the potential health risks.
Roderick Calloway, an activist against 5G, says he noticed a difference in his body since using 4G - he and others are worried about what will happen next.

"I’ve been athletic all my life - I was a runner and I never had heart palpitations and I never had migraine headaches," said Roderick Calloway, an activist against 5G.

"Studies confirmed that there is a link between wireless technology and cancer," said William Bathgate, an activist against 5G.

Activists say they have found studies that suggest 5G is harmful to one’s health and they are strongly encouraging people to do their research.

Officials say 5G is supposed to be up to 100 times faster than other networks. There are 5G concerns in some parts of Europe as well.
