Watch the Ware Lecture!

The Ware Lecture was one of my favorite GA events. Join me on Monday, July 7 at 6:00 to watch the recording together. The recording is about 1.5 hours. Bring your dinner if you’d like. Let me know if childcare would help you be able to attend. Each year, the UUA President extends an invitation to a prestigious guest to captivate the General Assembly as the esteemed Ware Lecturer. The 2025 Ware Lecturer was Imara Jones. Read more here: https://www.uua.org/ga/program/highlights/ware-lecture

Intro to Security for Protestors and Everyone - 50501 Training Series
2025-07-24 18:00 - 20:00
Intro to Security for Protestors and Everyone – 50501 Training Series
This hour and a half class will cover basic safety knowledge that people who may be attending or considering attending protests may find particularly useful, although these security skills are generally useful to anyone. We will provide an overview comprising digital and device security, physical safety, and legal considerations. There will be a follow-up class later for more advanced topics aimed at organizers, influencers, and anyone interested.
No registration. Will not be recorded or streamed.
If you can’t make it, or even if you can, we also have digital materials that more extensively cover these concepts that we strongly urge you to peruse.
