Lace Up. Show Up.

Protest Checklist Before stepping out the door, make sure you’ve got: • Fully charged phone and portable charger • ID and health essentials • Water and a light snack • Emergency contact info • A copy of your rights or legal hotline number • A clear plan for how you’re getting home This isn’t just about showing up, it’s about showing up smart. Know Your Rights – Before You Protest If you’re heading out today, make sure you know the legal protections you carry with you — whether or not anyone reminds you of them. • You have the right to remain silent. You don’t have to answer questions beyond basic ID (where required). • You can ask: “Am I free to go?” If the answer is yes, leave calmly. If not, ask: “Am I being detained?” • You have the right to record public officials in public spaces. You can document what’s happening as long as you’re not interfering. • You do not have to consent to a search. Clearly state, “I do not consent to any search.” Do not resist physically. • Stay calm. Document what you can. Badge numbers, names, time, location. Ask for legal counsel if detained. Protect yourself. Protect others. Know your rights, and use them. *NOT LEGAL ADVICE* Dress for the Weather, Dress for the Message Before you hit the streets, make sure you’re dressed for both the conditions and the cause. Today’s forecast is calling for light rain and cooler temps in the mid-50s. That means: • Layer up and wear water-resistant shoes or boots • Bring a poncho or hooded jacket — they work better than umbrellas in a crowd • Pack light, and leave anything behind that could get in the way Safety Tip: Stick to solid, neutral colors. It helps reduce facial recognition and keeps you from standing out unnecessarily. Avoid clothing with logos or identifiers, and skip scarves or loose accessories that can be grabbed or pulled. And don’t forget your sign. Protect it with clear tape or a waterproof sleeve. Reinforce corners to avoid tearing. A visible message is a powerful one — even in the rain.
