Does protesting matter? You bet it does. Riki Wilchins, a veteran trans right activist, wrote eloquently about the significance of protests, in a piece for Assigned Media last month:
“If you were wondering what’s going on and how to cope, let me offer a suggestion: Get up, stand up, suit up, and show up. Hand out a flier, hold up a sign, (lovingly) menace someone. We may not realize it yet, but if all three million of us rise up together, we are an unstoppable force.”
And a heads up: If you've organized an upcoming protest and want to get the word out email AssignedMediaProtests@gmail.com.
