'On the front line of activism, we are confronted with a dichotomy of feelings; empowerment through solidarity and exercising our political right, amalgamated with the fear of implications and the physiological effects of stress hormones.

The impacts of the events, positive and negative can have long-lasting and wide reaching effects on the individuals involved. The action doesn’t end when you leave the site and go home; there could be social implications with court cases, family or workplace issues. Simultaneously the emotional journey can unfold in subtle ways. People may feel isolated, alienated or estranged, filled with self doubt or even shame.The extent of the impact may not be apparent in the immediate aftermath of the action, and often can build over time if it is ignored.'
