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.

Campaign Nonviolence Action Days, 9/21-10/2
From September 21 to October 2, communities around the world will reflect, educate, and act for nonviolent solutions. Still working out what your action could look like? Find some ideas for inspiration in our toolkit or longer guide.
Weekend Read: Strategic Signs for Protests
Picketing is a staple of nonviolent action in the United States. At intersections, along busy streets, on highway overpasses, small to midsized groups of people scrawl a message on cardboard in sharpie. Take time this weekend to consider a messaging strategy for such signs.
Peace through Weakness
Peace through strength is a foreign policy doctrine that calls for military superiority to deter aggression, which the Trump Administration now brazenly proclaims using hostile, threatening rhetoric by leaders loudly self-defining as Christian. Let us instead lift up Jesus and his words and actions in the face of threats of violence and acts of war.
