Protesters gathered in Washington on Friday, October 15, to advocate for climate action for the fifth consecutive day during a week of demonstrations demanding a stop to fossil-fuel projects.

This footage filmed by Director of Fossil Free Media Jamie Henn shows people standing with protesters singing as part of the demonstration.

According to Henn, 130 people were arrested during protests at the Chamber of Commerce and Stewart Lee Udall Department of the Interior Building on Thursday.

The People vs Fossil Fuels demonstrations, organized by a coalition of groups known as Build Back Fossil Free, began with rallies led by indigenous people on Monday and are scheduled to conclude on Friday. Credit: Jamie Henn via Storyful
