Non-Violent Direct Action and Spokescouncil organizing
If you haven't registered for the 2-day Direct Action and Blockades training on April 18/19, you can do so here: http://goo.gl/forms/FoUeUV0Ksc
Day 1 will be an introduction to non-violent resistance tactics, roles and planning - infused with physical roleplays and practice in blockading tactics, de-esclation and quick decision making in small and large groups.
Day 2 will be composed of breakout groups focusing on specific technical skills including: Technical Blockades, Climbing and Ariel Blockades, Action Scouting, Legal and Jail Support.
The training is sequential so we expect Day 2 participants to have attended Day 1 - or to contact us if you cannot.
Thanks for being AWESOME!
PS: Recruit your friends to be equally AWESOME!
