1772 || protection in the margins

The most successful strikes, boycotts, resistance, and activism has stemmed from people willing to be brave, think differently, and utilize the protection of the margins they're living in.

There are certain privileges that some of us are afforded, that can provide us with a "safety net" of protection in our acts of intentional resistance.

As more of our safety nets are removed, we are less protected when we rebel against the system. The point is to limit our power through limiting our resources and ability to act freely.

Pay attention to the margins and protections you do have access to, and see what you can exploit within them to stretch them for others to exist in the same space.
