purpose
We monitor the actions of police, state agencies and private security at protests.
We provide information and legal resources on protestors’ rights and what police and state agencies do at protests.
We help to build a network of legal support for people affected by police powers, including surveillance, arrests, and uses of force.
We support people who protest, activists and community-led action. We care about the safety of protestors.
who we are and what we believe
We are a grassroots collective who supports struggles for liberation.
We do this because we are also a part of the struggle, not because it is our job.
We organise on sovereign Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Country across so-called New South Wales. We centre and prioritise First Nations movements.
We support communities to engage in collective action by monitoring the actions of police and state powers. We are independent of protests.
