Powering Progress Education Series

Indivisibles,


For the first five months of 2024, we ran a monthly education series featuring incredible guest speakers focused on improving your ability to hold persuasive conversations. Those events were so popular, and the feedback was so positive, that we're bringing it back with a new, four-part series on an equally vital topic -- Apathy to Action: Building Power to Save our Democracy.

Powering Progress Education Series

Join us for the first installment of our new Powering Progress Education Series -- Protecting our Democracy: De-escalation & Bystander Intervention Tactics on Wednesday, August 7 at 7pm ET/4pm PT.

Our world is divided across lines of difference. Whether it's race, ideology, socioeconomic background, religion, or any other number of sensitive subject matters, bad actors have inflamed tensions, making it more difficult to bridge gaps and bring people to our side. And in the most extreme cases, those exchanges begin to turn heated -- making a tense situation start to feel potentially dangerous.

So what do you do?

Come find out how to navigate the unexpected (and sometimes physical) directions conversations can take. Learn the tactics you can use to prevent escalation in the first place and the best ways to intervene when it occurs. We're excited to be able to provide you this training from Right to Be (formally known as Hollaback), so that you can continue doing the work of having persuasive conversations with the knowledge to keep yourself, and your fellow activists, safe. 

This is the first installment of a new, four-part educational series we will be rolling out soon. Check this call series guide to keep up to date on the future sessions, but don't worry, we'll make sure to send you reminders as each one is scheduled. We can't wait for you to learn more about bystander intervention and de-escalation. They are invaluable tools not just in your organizing work, but for life in general. Join us on Wednesday, August 7 at 7pm ET/4pm PT.
