We’re excited to make a PDF available of a zine that is being circulated across Michigan titled “Whatever You Do, Don’t Talk to the Police”.

It’s a basic introduction for folks coming into contact with police and other law enforcement officials in the context of political demonstrations. It focuses on the importance of avoiding interactions with the police, looking out for each other, and taking care of each other. The zine explains how police often sew the seeds of division within resistance movements and instead articulates the importance of building a “culture of resistance” wherein folks respect a diversity of approaches by agreeing not to cooperate with the police.

Hundreds of copies of this zine have been distributed at protests and demonstrations across the state and it’s a great text to keep distributing as resistance continues to build.
