🌈 Paint the Streets: Ideas, inspiration & documentation

A warning to all Rebels, this is potentially what happens when you publicly advertise your paint the streets event.
Westside was told in no uncertain terms that they were watching us, and know what we are up to, no charges were laid.
In future all such events will be carried out in a purely clandestine manner, with small cells of only two or three moving around together.
At least we now know they are watching us.
We value reflecting and learning.

Sydney Community Working Group is trying to get the word out that every action is a chance to recruit new rebels. To that end, I made up a little stencil with the website and am adding to about 20% of my posters. If I do a mass post up, at least 1-2 will have a URL people can follow!

XR Print Workshop (UK) have made a how-to for their No Going Back posters - breaking chains and β€œX or Y” - e.g. Soil or Oil / People or Profit / Health or Wealth etc… so many options, very adaptable to local messaging.

Here it is

Detailed instructions for both screen printing & stencilling, with some hand-painting. Includes links to artwork files for download.

As discussed in the Paint The Streets meeting tonight I’m keen to get another batch of 10,000 stickers printed up, but this time with stronger XR messaging.

  • We Rebel On Stolen Land (Aboriginal colours)
    *Climate And Ecological Emergency
    *Non Violent Direct Action
    *Stop The Extinction Join The Rebellion
