Hello Rebels! This is the day! Ready?
The climate is with us! ☀️😃
Don’t forget: this is a non violent action of civil disobedience 🕊
>>> 2pm in the Royal Gardens <<<
- Travel and arrive in a small affinity group of 4-10 people.
- Follow the stewards' instructions when you arrive at the location of the blockade
🤙 Make sure you read the practical information: https://www.extinctionrebellion.be/en/royal-rebellion
If you can’t join by 2pm, that’s alright. Join us anytime. We will need more people to come throughout the day and night ⛺️ 🌝
Bring your instruments🎸🎻🎷, bring your smile😀, bring your peace 🧘🏼♀️🧘🏽♂️, and bring your determination 👠
Let’s make this a very impactful and meaningful moment in the history of Belgium 🇧🇪. This is the time when citizens rebel peacefully for system change, not climate change. 🌍🔥⏳

For those in the area, be at 2pm sharp on the Koningsplein / Place des Palais. Come from many different directions.
Come massively to Place Royal to the people assemblies, very little risk of arrest!
REBEL AGREEMENT
All rebels are asked to follow our basic agreement. It provides a basis for trust so that we and the general public know what we can expect of each other.
We show respect to everyone: to each other, to the general public, and to the government and police.
We engage in no violence, physical or verbal.
We carry no weapons and wear no masks. We are accountable for our actions.
We bring no alcohol or illegal drugs.
We take responsibility for ourselves: we are all crew.
We are here together until the Government acts on our three demands for action on the climate and ecological crisis. This agreement enables us to attract the many people we need to make this possible. Anyone breaking this agreement will be asked to leave.

Dear rebels!
The Royal Rebellion start was amazing! But the police violence that followed was unacceptable. 500 people were arrested and the rest received administrative fines.
Our action ended early but it was a success, beyond all expectations.
We will propose that the local groups organize a Debriefing of this action in their hometown, tomorrow afternoon or during the week. It is important that everyone can talk and exchange about what happened.
For people wishing to welcome rebels coming out of prison, we suggest that you self organize, get in contact with arrested rebels, meet in a café if you wish and possibly welcome the rebels wishing to sleep in Brussels at your home.
LOVE&RAGE
