Defendant Storytelling Spotlight
Thank you for filling out the form! This project is an effort to humanize the many faces of the defendant body. To this goal, your personal account of your experience is deeply appreciated. We will create a social media spotlight based on your response to help amplify the continued efforts of the movement to stop line 3 in the face of completed construction. Please note that if you have an active case, any statements you make here should be run past your lawyer to make sure it aligns with your defense strategy. Check out some more resources at resistline3.org. Past the basic info, there are some prompts to help you get started, but if they don't fit what you want to share, no need to follow them exactly. Please do share at least one substantive response. If you have questions about this project you can email media@resistline3.org or message Christina on signal (8027772174). This form does not collect your email or any other personal data so if you want us to be able to contact you, please add your info below. Thank you for your thoughtful sharing and stay safe!
Please enter your name as you would like it to appear publicly, pronouns, age, and location
What has the state charged you with?
Are you Indigenous or BIPOC? (optional, not for the post, just so we can prioritize those voices if there is a large response)
Can you include a specific call to action for the post? This can include a call to support a movement group like a camp, the legal defense fund, mutual aid calls, or any personal fundraisers. Ideally include a sentence about why you are calling people to act (donate, follow, educate oneself on...) as well as how they should do that ("venmo @_____" follow @_____)
