Considering being an arrestable?
Most people who come to an XR action choose not get arrested, however our movement is built on self-sacrifice. Mass arrests in urban areas is the most efficient mechanism to communicate the severity of our climate and ecological crisis, and to drive radical societal change. This is XR’s underlying foundation.
If you are considering arrest at this action, or would like to know more about getting arrested at this action, please fill out this form and a Rebel volunteer will follow up with you.
You can also choose to get arrested on the day. Regardless of when you decide that arrest is your moral duty, make sure to check in with an Arrest Support Volunteers (in green high-vis vests) to ensure your arrest process is recorded, monitored, and that your receive post-arrest support.
With love and rage,
Extinction Rebellion Vancouver
