Actions & Events
At the core of Extinction Rebellion’s philosophy is nonviolent civil disobedience. We promote civil disobedience and rebellion because we think it is necessary – we are asking people to find their courage and to collectively do what is necessary to bring about change.

Bristol Black Lives Matter Protest
If you are able to in the current environment, and you have shared in the grief and rage over the murder of George Floyd and all those before him, this is your chance to show up, get educated and listen to and share the voices of black activists. This is not an XR Bristol event but we are standing in solidarity as environmentalists for Black Lives Matter.
In alignment with the protests in the USA and the London Black Lives Matter protest, there will be a protest in Bristol for the vile killings of black people and those harmed by the police.
This is a peaceful protest – we will not condone or participate in violence. Please bring masks, gloves, food, water, non-recognisable clothes and anything to keep yourself safe.
1pm: Speakers and information stations
2pm: Protest moves
