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.
