Allies Navigating Hate Speech: Ideas and Practice for Showing Up

This event is part of our 12 Days of Peace virtual event series.

We know that harm happens by way of both unconscious slights and outright harassment, whether about someone's weight, sexual orientation, color, religion, or something else.

When it comes to responding in tense situations like this, fear of doing it wrong, of judgment, and of being ineffective can keep us from doing anything at all. It takes practice to change life-long habits and to learn to respond quickly, with integrity and humanity.

In this workshop, we will use short, focused, guided role-plays to practice responding with humanity when we witness harm.

Join Pam Winthrop Lauer, Certified Trainer with the Center for Nonviolent Communication, to learn some principles of Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and experience putting them into practice in real-life situations.
