This workshop is geared to those seeking to stand up and speak out or intervene in support of strangers as well as those they know when any form of intolerance is taking place. Upstanders learn basic self-defense concepts to keep themselves safe when they are standing up for others, they explore what it means to be an ally in a range of situations, learn de-escalation techniques, and how to support those targeted or at risk in empowering ways. This workshop is for Womxn of Color and is inclusive of trans, GNC, and non-binary people. Please arrive 15 minutes early for registration. This event is a free, donation based event. We are a volunteer collective and any donations collected will go back into running more free programs like this one for the community.
