You Should Have Stayed Home

In 2010, Tommy Taylor went to observe the G20 protests and unwittingly became part of the largest mass arrest in Canadian history. This provocative award-winning piece, which started out as a viral Facebook post, is Taylor’s deeply personal and absurdly humorous account of 48 hours he will never forget. Today, Tommy’s story takes on urgent new meaning in the context of the ever-rising tensions and public dialogue on police violence, protest, and institutional reform.
