Powerful actions are guided by many hands. Well-trained folks taking on roles such as Police Liaison, Marshal, Media Spokesperson, and others can make the difference between an unfocused crowd and an on-message group ready for anything. Gain skills in filling action roles to be strong and safe in the streets.

This training is open for all who are ready for bold and grounded action for justice. Youth are welcome!

UPDATE: we'll have breakout trainings within the workshop!

Come learn how to step powerfully in to the following roles:

Marshalling/De-escalation - led by Samantha Sassafras Shain and Toby Fraser

Media Spokesperson - Kaytee Ray-Riek

Chant Leader - Jennine Miller

Police Liason - Eileen Flanagan

Childcare available: please email Katie at kathryn.rowlett@gmail.com if you will need it.
