Protesting is key to visibility and growing the movement. When we show up in the streets we let others know nothing is normal, and we build the movement. Whether you love the big dates, or prefer a quiet overpass, you’ll find tips for making protests more fun, more effective, and safer.
Phone Security
Before traveling or attending a protest, review your phone security. The easiest and safest option is to buy a cheap dedicated phone. If that isn’t in the budget, click through for ways to make your existing phone safer.

Characters
From Portland’s Fearless Frog to historic characters with a message, costumes add spectacle and defray the fear-based messaging of the right.
Create a persona for your protesting activities. Make it silly or pointed — it’s dress-up time!
Document Resistance
If we don’t document what’s happening, who will? If you enjoy photography, videography, or writing, practice your craft. Learn how to use your phone without unlocking it, whether to film in vertical or horitontal format, or take a class to train your eye! Practice, so you’re ready when you need the skills!
