History is rich with stories and examples of creative, successful, and sometimes even humorous nonviolent resistance.

Resistance can take many forms and all are valid. At our upcoming salon, we aim to learn about effective strategies for nonviolent resistance and think together about what's possible locally.

Come share your ideas, be a devil's advocate, or just learn about strategies from around the world!

Our program includes a speaker who is an expert in the field, pre-recorded TED talks, activities and deep-dive discussions.
