What:
Richardson Grove Action Now will host a freeworkshop, Saturday June 18th, open to anyone who might want to participate in direct action for the Earth or any social justice struggle.
Focused on skills, experiences, and resistance teachings, each of us will become more prepared to decide what actions to take and how to go about planning and implementing them! Organize to be a wrench in the machine and assert your power with confidence.
We will discuss:
~action groups and roles
~non-violence
~group decision-making
~legal issues and tactics
~handling aggression directed at your action, and
~solidarity tactics.
This workshop will help de-mystify the legal system which people often must deal with when involved in direct action. Don’t let the legal system separate or silence us!
Food and beverages will be provided.
The Non-Violent DIRECT ACTION Workshop on Saturday June 18th will begin at Noon and go all day.
Location To Be Announced.
All ages are welcome as well as all levels and types of experience.
