PROTECT THE PEACEFUL PROTEST THE SIT-DOWN WAVE What to do if violence breaks out at a protest: 1. SIT DOWN-TOGETHER Lower yourself to the ground immediately. Stay where you are. 2. SILENCE IS POWER Stop chanting, put down signs, and remain silent. 3. SPREAD THE SIGNAL Gesture or quietly tell others to sit. Let the action ripple through the crowd like a wave. 4. DO NOT ENGAGE Don't argue, confront, or respond to aggression. Discipline speaks for itself. 5. MAKE PEACE VISIBLE A calm, seated crowd is a powerful image for the world โand the cameras โ to see. Nonviolence is powerful, strategic, and united. #SitDownWave #PeacefulProtest #NonviolentPower #Gandhi
