Governments and police often surveil protests. Protect yourself:

Cover tattoos and distinctive clothing.

Wear masks and hats.

Avoid posting photos with faces.

Assume cameras are everywhere, act accordingly.

Protest smart. Protest safe.

After a protest, take care of yourself:
💧 Rehydrate, you probably walked miles.
🍎 Eat something nourishing.
💬 Debrief with friends, share what felt powerful and what felt heavy.
🛌 Rest. Movements are marathons, not sprints.

Self-care keeps the fight going.

Filming at protests saves lives, but can also put people at risk. Here’s how to do it safely:

Focus on police, not protesters’ faces

Blur or crop identifying details before posting

Never livestream protesters without consent

Always back up your footage

Protests can get tense. Here’s how to de-escalate:

Speak calmly, keep your body language open.

Don’t shout over people; listen first.

If conflict rises, step in as a “peace buffer” with others.

Redirect energy: chants, movement, or relocating the group.

Going to a protest? Protect your phone.

Turn off Face/Touch ID (police can force unlock with your body, but not your passcode).

Disable location tracking.

Back up your data before you go.

Use encrypted apps (Signal, not SMS).

Your phone carries your life; keep it secure.

If you’re detained at a protest:

Stay calm and don’t resist.
Ask, “Am I free to leave?” If yes, walk away slowly.
If not free to leave, say: “I am exercising my right to remain silent. I want a lawyer.”
Do not answer questions beyond identifying yourself.

Memorize a legal hotline before you go.

I'm glad to have gotten to cover Tech for Palestine for @ssir.org. Read about the incubator's (v ambitious!) efforts to "change [the tech industry] into something that’s pro-freedom, pro-liberation, and pro-human rights."

The Tech for Palestine business incubator is dedicated to strengthening pro-human rights projects within the technology industry, starting with the rights of Palestinians.

Protest Safety Tip: Always have a buddy.
Whether it’s making sure someone knows you got home safe or watching each other’s backs in the crowd, no one should protest alone.

👥 Tag your go-to protest buddy.
📌 Save this for your next action.
