WELLS FARGO DEATH MARCH
(Mock Funeral Procession)
Wells Fargo Death March – Feb 3rd 11:30 AM – 1:30 PM
Wells Fargo has invested heavily in the private detention of immigrants in recent years. Private detention centers capitalize on human suffering to make a profit. Wells Fargo uses its mutual funds to invest in two of the largest for-profit detention companies: Corrections Corporation of America and the GEO Group. As of December 2010, Wells Fargo had invested $5.9 million in Corrections Corporation of America and $88.7 million in the GEO Group,
