Just after 10am on a bright and sunny Monday in April 2019, hundreds of people stepped off the pavement and on to the road on Waterloo Bridge in London.
Within a few minutes, one of the main crossings over the River Thames was full of people, tents were erected, banners unfurled, mobile kitchens opened and trees in planters dragged into the carriageway.
Extinction Rebellion (XR) â which had launched a few months earlier to sound the alarm about the climate crisis â had arrived.
In the coming days thousands of people took part in a 10-day blockade of key sites across central London. The April ârebellionâ was the start of the biggest civil disobedience campaign seen in the UK for generations and it was followed by two more major demonstrations as well as scores of other smaller protests targeting âbad actorsâ in the system, from fossil fuel firms to the printing presses of rightwing newspapers.
