Information Request Form

Welcome to the SF area chapter of Singing Resistance!

Singing Resistance is a movement that started in response to the ICE invasion of Minnesota. The core MN organizers put out a call, toolkit, and training for people to mobilize Singing Resistance chapters across the US, and San Francisco is answering that call! We welcome everyone into the movement for collective liberation.

We are building a mass movement of singers to protect and care for our communities in the face of rising authoritarianism. We are grounded in love, nonviolence, and solidarity. In the context of escalating violence towards our communities and federal invasions of our cities and towns, we sing because song is an antidote to fear, song helps us connect to each other, and through song we can name and protect what we hold sacred. We sing publicly in the streets for the sake of solace, strength, solidarity, to voice our dissent, and to refuse cooperation with oppressive and autocratic forces. This form will help us learn more about you and help you get connected with the Singing Resistance SF hub and SR-SF pods.

Our organizing happens largely in person and on the encrypted messaging app Signal. We are committed to information security and will only contact you with information directly related to Singing Resistance SF meetings and/or actions.

I consent to being contacted (via methods provided above) for Singing Resistance activities.

I understand that participation in Singing Resistance may involve public protest and personal visibility.

I understand that my image may be captured when photos or video is taken during group actions, which may be used to promote Singing Resistance SF's work on its social media page. We encourage everyone to take their own personal level of precautions to privacy/anonymity (eg. wear masks or hats/scarves to hide, however, this does not guarantee that much protection).

I agree to take personal responsibility for my own safety and actions while participating in any events organized by Singing Resistance SF. (Note: we have toolkit that includes safety tips to consider during actions.)

I agree to hold the administrators/organizers of Singing Resistance SF harmless, within reason, for their roles in organizing meetings, events, and actions in which I choose to voluntarily participate.
