This is civil disobedience‼️ We've asked 'nicely' for decades. Disobeying institutions that abuse power to deliberately harm those less powerful is a vital tenant of a healthy democracy. There is still time to join is at #RisingTide 👇🏽

![People dressed from head to toe in red raise their arms in peaceful protest while standing on the beach at Newcastle Harbour.
[See video of flotilla action on the water in link above].
Rising Tide say their actions are peaceful, describing the event as a family-friendly mobilisation with a serious purpose.

Newcastle Port now closed to coal ships! Wish we had drone footage of 5 Nannas in a tinny breaching 100m exclusion zone in an ‘exciting back &forth with police boats’. (Observers report). No arrests. Harbour authorities closed the port to coal ships. @risingtideaus.bsky.social

Mina Bui Jones is a resident of the Hunter Valley region that is overly reliant on the boom and bust of coal prices. She was arrested this afternoon with #RisingTide, demanding a 78% tax on coal exports to help fund a just transition away from the dangerous fossil fuel economy 💚

Jonathon Dykyj originated from Central Queensland and knows first hand the boom and bust impact on communities from their rover-reliance on coal and gas. He's now a local Newcastle parent and was one of the swimmers arrested at #RisingTide this afternoon. Thanks Jono!
