Apply Heat, Melt I.C.E. - How to Protest Guide
LA went up in smoke last weekend in response to Trump's I.C.E. raids. The community fought back and defeated five robo-taxis and countless pigs. Sam and Jamie cover the developments in LA and talk about what it could look like for the movement to spread.
In the second half of the episode, the Party Girls offer a practical how-to guide on protesting. What should you wear? What should you bring? What should you do? What should you not do? What do you become capable of when nobody knows who you are?
Stay tuned for this week's BONUS episode, wherein the PG crew gives some in-depth analysis.
