In our #ZimbabweanLivesMatter Series, we profile Jacob Ngarivhume who is at Chikurubi Maximum Prison for being the convener of the July 31 protest against corruption

@dzikamaibere @Wamagaisa @DavidColtart @DougColtart
In the run-up to the #July31, many questions were raised regarding the leadership of the protest. Some said it would be a flop because it was leaderless. Many said they did not trust the messengers.

But as we look back to the events of July 31, and how the protest triggered a series of events in the region and globally, many doubts have been settled. Our understanding of leadership is transforming

Excerpts from General Comment 37 below:

2. "6. Article 21 protects peaceful assemblies wherever they take place: outdoors, indoors & online; in public & private spaces; or a combination thereof.
3."6.(ctd)Assemblies...take many forms, including demonstrations, protests, meetings, processions, rallies, sit-ins, candlelit vigils & flash-mobs...13. While...assembly implies...more than one participant in the gathering, a single protester enjoys comparable protections."

Those planning to participate in the #FreeZimbabwe demonstrations, and those supporting them:

Be cautious of those speaking like they are with you, but advocating violence.

The forces against you are hard at work, trying to frame this demonstration as something it is not.
Even those that have allied with you for a long time: they may be a victim of propaganda, or they may be compromised, or worse they were never really with you.

There is no violence called for in these demos, for any reason.
#FreeZimbabwe
Also be aware of the naysayers; insulate your mind & spirit against them.

They will grow louder & noisier as the demos draw nearer.

The social media campaign against the demos are multi-pronged:
