SUMMARY:Drown Out Hate
DESCRIPTION:“Billboard Chris” has announced a return to Ottawa to once again hold a transphobic protest outside the schools on Broadview Avenue. Last time this happened\, the community came out in great numbers to drown out the hate\, and Community Solidarity Ottawa is once again organizing a counterprotest starting at 12pm at the intersection of Broadview & Dovercourt. \n\n\n\nMake sure to keep in mind these important safety tips from the organizers: \n\n\n\n– Do not give interviews to far right media outlets or “independent journalists”– Don’t debate far-right trolls. Either ignore them or drown them out with chants and noise! Especially if they are filming or livestreaming and looking for content.– Do not film supporters without their permission. Do film the far right\, fake journalists\, and the police in order to protect yourself and your friends.– Protect your identity. Mask up\, and use signs\, flags\, umbrellas\, etc.\, to protect yourself from being photographed by far right activists or fake news outlets.– Keep yourself safe online; put your socials on high privacy settings to avoid doxxing and harassment after the event– Maintain situational awareness\, and watch each others’ backs– Try to arrive and leave as a group– Check the weather\, drive safely and dress appropriately! Give yourself plenty of time to arrive! \n\n\n\nIf you are available to help in any role (first aid\, crowd control\, etc.)\, please contact us at communitysolidarityottawa@gmail.com. We will be holding a briefing session on Thursday night for those interested in attending\, where we will go over how you can keep yourself as safe as possible while effectively confronting bigots.
