Boots on the Ground – First Meeting | June 29, 2025
📚 Class Notes and PowerPoint Presentation
Welcome to the beginning of something powerful. This is the video recording of the very first Boots on the Ground public meeting, held on June 29, 2025, at The Eagle Wilton Manors. It marks the launch of a movement rooted in resistance, community, education, and love. We are leatherfolk, kinksters, allies, and freedom fighters. We are unapologetically queer. And we are showing up to defend democracy.
In this one-hour session, we lay the groundwork for what’s to come:
🥾 Why Boots on the Ground was founded
📚 What we’re fighting for and how we’ll do it
✊ How you can get involved in the work of building a freer future
We believe that even in the face of rising authoritarianism, we have the power to organize, educate, and win. No authoritarian regime in history has withstood organized opposition from just 3.5% of the population. We’re building that 3.5%—together. Because our rights aren’t a fetish—they’re fundamental.

This class connects historic protest techniques to modern activism, offering practical inspiration for taking action in today’s political climate. Whether you’re new to civil rights history or looking to deepen your knowledge, this class is a call to learn, to reflect, and to rise!

By Guest Presenter Big John
Our government wasn’t built to be fair—but knowing how it works gives us the power to bend it toward justice. In just one hour, we’ll pull back the curtain on the founders’ original design, trace how it’s morphed into today’s modern system, and uncover the hidden levers of power. This isn’t a dry civics lesson—it’s a crash course in turning knowledge into action. Come ready to laugh, learn, and leave inspired to play smarter, louder, and stronger in the fight for real democracy.
📚 Class Notes and PowerPoint Presentation
Whether you’re brand new to activism or a seasoned marcher, this class will equip you with everything you need to protest safely, legally, and powerfully. In a time when our rights are under attack, knowing how to show up—and show out—matters more than ever.
In Protesting 201, we’ll cover:
👟 What to wear and bring (and what to leave at home)
📵 How to protect yourself physically, digitally, and legally
📣 The different types of protest actions—marches, sit-ins, die-ins, noise demos, and more
✊ Knowing your rights when protesting (especially in hostile states)
🗣️ How to chant, support others, and stay emotionally grounded
🧠 Why protest works: a quick dive into the history and strategy behind direct action
🖤 How to plug into local and national movements effectively
You don’t need to be loud, you don’t need to be brave—you just need to show up prepared. This class is about empowerment, education, and building the skills to make real change on the ground.
Bring your questions. Bring your boots. Let’s get ready. Because our rights aren’t a fetish—they’re fundamental.
📚 Class Notes and PowerPoint Presentation
Your wallet isn’t just cash—it’s a vote, a superpower, a revolution in your pocket! Join us for a high-energy class where we turn receipts into rebellion.
Discover how 2025’s Economic Blackouts made Target sweat, BDS boycotts crushed Nike’s profits, and everyday heroes like YOU forced oligarchs to blink.
We’ll laugh, swap wins, and arm you with apps, hacks & bold moves to:
✨ Skip the bad guys
✨ Boost the good ones
✨ Change the world—one purchase (or non-purchase) at a time!
No guilt. No gloom. Just hope, hype, and high-fives. Bring your coffee (ethical, obvs) and let’s make corporations work for us.

🌟 RayHunter Cell Site Simulator🌟
If you protest in high police presence areas, think about getting the Ray Hunter Cell Site Simulator to detect when law enforcement is using a Stingray to ping and record your location data from your cell phone. When you turn it on, if it is green you are good but if it turns red, it is detecting a Stingray device pinging the area. Stay safe while protesting and we will see you in the streets!
