WEAR: - Facemask. Scarves or bandanas large enough to cover your face from nose to chin can serve as substitutes. - Shatter-resistant eye protection (e.g. shatter-resistant sunglasses, swim goggles, or a gas mask) - Clothing covering all your skin as much as possible Comfortable, closed, protective shoes that you can run in - AVOID wearing contact lenses, which can trap irritating chemicals, such as tear gas powder, underneath. If you do wear contacts lenses, keep a full facial gas mask or goggles on at all times. - AVOID wearing makeup such as eyeliner, for the same reason. BRING: - Water in your own plastic bottle with a squirt top (to drink and to wash off your skin or eyes) - A backpack or a drawstring bag – rather than an over-the-shoulder or a cross-body bag – in case you need to run Identification and/or emergency contact information (consider writing this on your skin) - Cash for food and transportation or cash bail, in case you are arrested. Check how much bail is in your location. - Inhaler, epipen, and several days of prescription medication, in case you are arrested - A medical alert bracelet or information about any chronic medical conditions or allergies - A change of clothes, in case you are exposed to chemical irritants (https://phr.org/our-work/resources/preparing-for-protecting-against-and-treating-tear-gas-and-other-chemical-irritant-exposure-a-protesters-guide/)
