Field notes
Sections are arranged as an archive, grievance, “active operations,” and a “Phase II” work program, giving the conceit the paperwork of a campaign. The page names founder Dominic Box and credits Coastal Cowboys, and points to a vertical 9:16 clip attributed to YouTube’s @watercuplivesmatter. It labels the Savannah protest “original operation—archived” while also presenting W.E.T. Works as the movement’s next phase.
