Yesterday eight peaceful protesters on Chicago’s Fisk Coal Plant painted the message “Quit Coal” on the 450-foot smokestack looming over the city’s Southside Pilsen neighborhood.

The protestors are scheduled to appear in court later today to find out their charges.

Eight different activists who were arrested across town for blockading a barge full of coal have been released and charged with misdemeanors.
