HOPE PV Trainings

September 9th & September 16th, 6:30pm - 8:00pm

Harnessing Our Power to End (HOPE) Political Violence is a guide for communities across the United States to organize to counter political violence. It’s for people who recognize the dire stakes that political violence creates, and who want to work together nonviolently to protect our communities and uphold democracy. The vast majority of people in the US - in cities and small towns, across party lines, and from all walks of life - oppose political violence. Together, we need to push back against those who want to silence our voices, who try to deny us our rights, and who aim to bully their way into political influence through intimidation and violence.

The HOPE-PV workshop is designed to help people across the United States counter political violence. It aims to empower individuals and strengthen communities to make political violence backfire against those who incite, threaten, and enact it. The workshop will take place over two ninety minute online sessions September 9th and September 16th. It will be participatory and dynamic and will give activists the tools to create community responses to political violence that can both support victims and impose costs on those who incite and engage in abuse. We need to stand up to those who want to silence our voices, who try to deny us our rights, and who aim to bully their way into political influence through intimidation and violence.
