Our Summer Activist’s Series continues Thursday July 24! Come join us to learn more about the how and why of our fight against fascism.

• How do we organize a protest, and plan a campaign, to create tangible changes in our lives here and now?

• How do we practice daily actions to protect each other from the grips of an authoritarian state?

• How do we connect across communities and issues?

• What have we learned from resistance movements in the U.S. and elsewhere?

• What have we learned from each other here in Charlottesville? Join as many sessions as you can – let’s build power!

Lock it Down: Tools for Safer Digital Organizing

Smartphones, social media and the internet have made it easier than ever to organize. But this technology also opens new avenues for surveillance and bad actors to hinder or harm organizers. This session talks about the basics of digital safety—why it’s important, why you should care, and how to keep you and those around you safe.
