Protests aren’t the only tool in the anti-authoritarian toolkit, but they’re incredibly important. Protests help us see each other; they make it feel safer to refuse to obey the dictator, and make it more possible for us to organize mass non-cooperation.
It’s an essential step in the process.

Amid the flurry of extreme actions taken by the Administration, there’s one question I’ve been asked more than any other:
“What are you going to *do* about it?”
It’s a fair point—especially when the President has thus far avoided any real accountability.
I’ll do my best to address it. (1/14)
