Hey John,

There are so many ways that community members can create structures of support through the development of relationships, sharing of skills, and centering of needs. This webinar will offer a collaborative breakdown of the history and application of Mutual Aid & Community Defense as revolutionary tools and traditions.

Join us as we talk with 3 organizers about their experience doing community defense work in various settings. We’ll also offer a brief introduction to an interactive Community Defense Beginners Guide & Interactive Workbook  that I built from a decade of trial and error and influence organizing on the ground in community.
