Resources.

There are many incredible guides and resources online which cover protesting, direct action, community organising, mutual aid, and more! Your physical and emotional wellbeing during and after protests is paramount, please never feel pressured into taking any action you feel unprepared for. The more you know about your own rights and practical skills for navigating protests, the more you can make informed decisions about situations you may find yourself in.

It is also important to remember that not everybody is treated equally by the state and the police; Black, Brown and GRT communities, LGBTQIA+ communities, working class communities, people living with mental health conditions, and sex workers consistently face increased violence from these institutions. Please be mindful of this when attending protests and always watch out for your fellow protestors!
