Advice from SPLC on student journos covering protests
On what to do if you're covering any of the protests this weekend:
Bring ID, $50, cell phone. Obey the officers. Etcetera.

Becker, Esq., has agreed to provide on-the-scene assistance to any student journalist that is arrested or detained covering the protests.
