Blocking the entrances to the 2017 Petroleum Conference in New Plymouth, Sina Fitzjohn offers a personal retelling of blockading local and international oil delegates from arriving to discuss the expansion of the oil and gas industry in New Zealand. The action was the result of collaboration between many climate change resistance groups led by women, including the Climate Justice Taranaki, Friends of Waitara River, Frack Free, Parihaka, Oil Free Wellington, Oil Free Auckland, Greenpeace, Auckland Peace Action, 350 Aotearoa, Pacific Panthers, and Ngatiawa Ki Taranaki Trust.
