With my nonbinary Korean fellow activist friend, from Vancouver, at VGH. We met over 2 yrs ago on remote frontlines & were one of very few Asian activists with boots on the ground at protest camps in BC. They're an amazing human being. We worked on deescalation training, accessibility solutions & nonviolent defense tactics together.

In #Singapore - #activists walk a fine line. Just the word “activist” arouses a certain degree of discomfort. Activists are rarely seen as #benevolent #agitators for a better future. They are regarded as troublemakers.
Kate Yeo is a #Singaporean #climate #campaigner who is instinctively aware of all the sensitivities of engaging in #activism in the conservative state.
