Hey there! Have you ever seen people gathering in big groups to share their thoughts? Sometimes, these gatherings are called protests. Let’s learn about who helps keep everyone safe during these events!
👮♂️ The Police Officers
Police officers are the first ones to help during protests. They make sure that people can express themselves while keeping everyone safe. They help direct traffic, protect buildings, and assist anyone who needs help.
🪖 The National Guard
Sometimes, if a protest becomes very large or if there’s an emergency, the National Guard is called in to help. The National Guard is a group of trained citizens who can assist in times of need, like natural disasters or big events. They work with the police to keep communities safe.
🏛️ The Government Leaders
Local leaders like mayors and governors make important decisions during protests. They work with the police and the National Guard to ensure everyone’s rights are respected.
🤗 Working Together
All these people work together to make sure that during protests, everyone’s voice can be heard safely. It’s a team effort to keep our communities peaceful and respectful!
💡 Remember
It’s okay to express your thoughts and feelings. And it’s important to do so safely and respectfully, just like the helpers who keep us safe during these times!
