Revision as of 19:52, 5 July 2005

A Black Bloc is an anarchist patroll of a major protest or demonstration. Their role is:

to assert the strong right to anonymity, often wearing black masks
to protect nonviolent protestors (ordinary trolls) from the police
to distract the police and prevent them from executing a planned attack on the nonviolent protestors
to convince police officers to quit working on behalf of the oppressors
