With the killing of Alex Pretti by ICE agents today in Minnesota, organizers in the Twin Cities are calling for solidarity across the country.
They ask for rapid-response, community nonviolence training on Monday, Jan 26th before commencing direct action in your locality:
Non Violent Direct Action Training
We encourage you to adapt the following training materials to meet your organization’s needs.
- Non Violent Direct Action Training Deck [incoming]
- Non Violent Direct Action toolkit
- Target Toolkit
- Corporate Letter for Delivery
Encourage your members to take action together.
Here is the TOOLKIT for organizing tactics, shared by Minnesota organizers.
Here are MLK’s principles of nonviolence, which make a great addition to your community training, learning, and practice of nonviolence.
Please organize locally in community and share this information with other organizers and faith leaders you know.

Why Nonviolent Resistance Doesn’t Require Your Opponent to Have a Conscience

Nonviolence or Extinction
On MLK Day, Nonviolence International invites you to read the words of Martin Luther King, Jr. from his speech about nonviolence when he received the Nobel Peace Prize.
