Be the Change: Skills for Interrupting Hate by admin, last updated: Oct 19, 2021 03:01 PM: Interrupting hate and other problematic behaviors is a concrete way to create change. But it’s not always easy to do. If you’ve seen or heard harassment, microaggressions, or worse, you may have wished there was more you could have said or done. Even if it’s just a friend making a “joke” about a group of people. In our Interrupting Hate workshop, you’ll learn: -How to tell if someone’s being harassed -How to assess if it’s safe for you to step in and help -How to safely bring the temperature down when a situation is heating up -5 steps to take to help get someone out of harm’s way -What to say if you hear someone saying something hateful—or otherwise oppressive. Open to everyone age 14 and up, no one is turned away for inability to pay.
