1:00 PM – 4:00 PM @ Episcopal Church of the Epiphany
Join us to learn how collective noncooperation can undermine the “pillars of support” for authoritarian and fascist regimes.
Voting is one of the primary levers of power citizens can pull to influence politics. But it is not the only lever!
How to Leverage Real Political Power
A more powerful weapon, and a weapon that we can wield at any time, is mass nonviolent resistance. This is the coordinated, targeted effort to weaken the institutional support structures of authoritarian regimes. These “pillars of support” include civil servants, law enforcement, the military, business, religion, schools, and more.
Boycotting businesses that support the Trump regime is an example of collective noncooperation. In the past year, Target, Disney, and others have suffered from widespread boycotts. This coordinated effort against private enterprise can also apply to other pillars.
Training from the Best
Freedom Trainers, a nationally recognized group specializing in collective noncooperation and nonviolent resistance, is coming to Savannah to teach us how to mobilize. We’re going beyond boycotts. We’re going after the structural roots of Trump’s power.
This is a free training event for anyone seeking an answer to the question of “what else can I do?”
