This years workshops are focusing on our systematic relationship with the police.
The job of the police is to maintain "law and order." But if the laws written keep certain people marginalized and others privileged, what is the real role of our law enforcement? It is important for us to recognize the systematic force the police work within in order for us to make our communities safer FOR ALL. This workshop moves to educate participants on the history of policing, knowledge of the system, and ways we could move towards making change in our community.
Part two of the workshop will be a "Know Your Rights" training provided by The People United Against Police Brutality. This powerful training will arm participants with knowledge about your personal interactions with the police. What should you do if you get pulled over or stopped? What should you do if you witness crime occurring? What steps do you need to take if you actually get arrested? All of these questions and more will be answered at this thorough workshop.
ALL WORKSHOPS ARE FREE!!! DON'T MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY!! SHARE WITH YOUR FRIENDS, NEPHEWS, GIRLFRIENDS, NEIGHBORS!!!
