The next similar wave of protests will be even bigger, so new strategies should take advantage of that.
I'm not an expert on tactics so I could be completely wrong about the rest, but maybe spread out more? Once you have enough protesters to completely shut down a street, start filling another. Shut down more of the city so your demands are harder to ignore. Plus it's harder to kettle you or shell you with tear gas. Though you'll also need to make sure there are still enough protesters in any given space that the police can't just overrun you.
Police tactics tend to work towards having a block of them trying to control choke points to manage/turn/kettle large groups. If they cannot maintain a large enough group to keep a riot line, its likely they will abandon any attempt to push back people in those areas.

Makes sense.

I wonder when it will come. This summer? 2024? In the 2030's?
