Voting is only possible at election time. Direct action can be applied all year round. Voting is only useful for addressing whatever topics are in the candidates' current political agendas. Direct action can be applied in every aspect of life. Unlike elections, direct action is under your control.

Things are slowly heating up. While they are still simmering, it's a good time to review skills for street protests. Unfortunately, everyone should read "A Demonstrator’s Guide to Responding to Gunshot Wounds" in order to be prepared for a worst-case scenario. Hopefully, you'll never need it. 🤞

Even if you have no medical training, there are things you can do to maximize the likelihood that a person who is shot in your vicinity will survive.

Block data centers—take down surveillance cameras—stop ICE. As opposition to Flock and data centers spreads across the political spectrum, we should connect these to ICE. We must understand all of these as manifestations of the same thing: an increasingly violent and invasive technocratic state.

ICE is trying to expand their only prison in New York state, in Batavia. They want to nearly double their capacity to keep people in solitary confinement. Please sign to stop the expansion! rocdsa.solidarity.tech/stop-the-build

Martial art skills aren't just for throwing punches, they can also be used to protect your neighbors from ICE. The correct stance or grip can go a long way in these scenarios. Learn how with this zine from @crimethinc.com

We need to be better at trying to get people with head injuries from being shot to leave the protest for medical treatment. It is already hard to make sound decisions after a few rounds of tear gas add a concussion, and it's worse. I did not follow that advice in 2020. I regret it.

Although millions took the streets today to demonstrate against Donald Trump's power grab, there was only one shooting, in Salt Lake City. Nonetheless, it is important to learn what you can do if a person is shot near you at a demonstration. Please read this guide. crimethinc.com/gunshotwounds 🧵⬇️

Wear a mask or face covering, not only does this help protect you but folks who are masking out of medical necessity as it helps keep them healthy and stand out less

Mental health calls to police can be deadly, but alternatives remain underfunded, @lewispants.bsky.social reports. The death of Aaron Rainey, shot & killed by Philadelphia police in March, has renewed calls for reliable, 24/7 non-police crisis & emergency response teams.

Liberals fear that if people act unruly, Trump will be able to impose totalitarian control. That gets things backwards. Trump is already imposing totalitarian control. That's what is driving people into the streets. It's too late to avoid this fight. We can be passive and lose—or give it our all.

It's Safer in the Front
Faced with intensifying repression and state violence, there is an understandable inclination to seek safety by avoiding confrontation. But this is not always the most effective strategy.

Tomorrow is looking to be wet, cold and rainy. Make sure to wear comfortable warm layers and bring rain gear, toss some extra hand warmers in your pockets so you can hand them out to folks if they look cold. Take your meds, WEAR A MASK, bring some water, bring some snacks and take a buddy.

Baltimore Street Medic Collective is raising funds to support our upcoming street medic training! A large portion of funds raised will be used to pay for ASL interpretation. Find our give butter campaign link below! #streetmedic #medic #fundraiser #giveback #firstaid #support #donate #baltimore
Black text on a beige background. There is a dandelion graphic in the lower right corner. Text reads: Helps us train more Street Medics! The Baltimore Street Medic Collective is hosting a training in Spring 2020, but we can't pull it off without your support! We are raising funds to cover ASL interpretation, travel costs for trainers, food, medical supplies, and more. 

A black text box in the lower left corner reads: Goal, $10,000. CONTRIBUTE AT: givebutter.com/bmoremedicsBlack text on a beige background reads: Why is this training so important? The Street Medicine movement in the U.S. was founded by Black and Indigenous healthcare workers, but the street medic community is currently predominantly white in the Mid-Atlantic. This is due to racist barriers limiting BIPOC folks from accessing this training. Our Spring 2025 training will prioritize BIPOC individuals as a step toward repairing this harm and supporting Black & Indigenous sovereignty from the medical industrial complex.Black text on a beige background. There is a flower graphic on the right side. Text reads: Non-monetary ways to support.

- Re-post this flyer to your own account
- Host an art sale of raffle with proceeds donated to the training fund

We will be restarting our regular bleeding control virtual trainings soon. atm we don't offer the street medic 20hr as that's beyond our capacity. We don't offer virtual narcan trainings but they can be easy to find in your local area, in Syracuse look for trainings from the prevention network.

Medic reminder. Don't use milk or LAW for pepper spray exposure. Flush with a large volume of water. Milk contains bacteria and is a great way to introduce an eye infection. LAW turns into an abrasive crust. Also, having a bright white face makes people easily identifiable.

Tear gas differs from oil-based pepper spray because it's an aerosolized powder. To address tear gas: 1.) prevention is key, wear a gas mask 2.) get out of the cloud and upwind 3.) brush and shake off all powder FIRST 4.) flush eyes with water 5.) cold shower at home 6.) emotional support
