Hi. Everyone should be buying gear right now— especially a stop the bleed kit. Shit is about to get really fucking intense on so many fronts and all we have right now is each other. #StreetMedicine #StreetMedic #ProtestMedicine #Anarchism #Abolition

Now would be a really good time to start planning out the logistics for constructing a water misting setup so that you can deploy community cooling stations for unhoused / un-air-conditioned this summer.

Here's a plan for how to create one for yourself. Start thinking of who you might be able to bring aboard to help construct this, as well as folks who might be interested in contributing time and effort to administering and re-supplying these stations during the hottest days of the year.

Also a good time to look into first aid training so that you can assist if needed.

The Black Flag Catalyst Revolt Guide – by The Black Flag Catalyst.

“The following resource is intended to be a guide for those who wish to carry out concerted political action and includes tactics for both militant and pacifistic direct action, organizing, creating assemblies, and even some introductory aspects of being a street medic. The goal of this guide is to compile the knowledge from the various insurrections across the planet and turn them into a single resource which can be given to anyone and to inform that person on their place in the broader schema.

For this reason, we will include both peaceful and non-peaceful tactics within this guide. If we are to learn from the successful movements of the past, we can see that all successful pressure has been the collusion of the peaceful and non-peaceful aspects of the movement, such that the peaceful party can lobby the state to concede, saying to them “now see? Wouldn’t you rather deal with me than them? Sit down and make some concessions to those suffering people.”

Meanwhile, the non-peaceful protesters escalate the aggression of their actions such as to put a clock on the state. Direct action should therefore not be seen as a chaotic by-product to be avoided. It should instead be seen as a necessity to extract outcomes for the movement. Ultimately, if the demands of the protests are not met, revolution should be the threat. In this way, we are to transform the state to our whims, not vice versa. And if it does not concede, we will have built the bodies of prefiguration that will be prepared to replace it..”
