Counter demo against the far right, meet at the Laing Art Gallery Ne1 8AG, Saturday 9th August @ 11am
Why wear a mask? Harder for the cops to gather information + work out connections, prevents indentifiable photos circulating amongst far-rights communities online. Makes facial recognition technology less effective. Helps keep everyone safe. Even if you don't think being identifiable puts you at risk, creating a culture of protest anonymity minimises the isolation of individuals more likely to be targeted.
What is grey bloc? Grey bloc is a softer version of black bloc. Instead of wearing all black, protesters in grey bloc wear anonymous looking clothing such as rainwear, sportswear and a mask. It's a good idea to bring a change of hat and a jacket just in case you need to disappear.
Join the counter demonstration this Saturday 9th August from 11am.
