UPCOMING EVENTS
Let's Talk: Know Your Rights Around Police
Time: Thursday, April 3rd @ 6:30 PM
Policing isn’t about safety – it’s about control, and our communities know this firsthand. That’s why Mass Liberation AZ, National Lawyers Guild Central AZ Chapter, and BLM Phoenix Metro are hosting a Know Your Rights training, focused on navigating encounters with police, while creating safe routes for each other.
We’ll cover:
- What to say (and not say) if you’re stopped, searched, or detained
- How to assert your rights without escalating the situation
- Ways to protect vulnerable folks from police violence
Community-based strategies to avoid calling the cops altogether
Together, we will learn how to keep one another protected when police are near, and build real safety. Come through, and connect with others committed to keeping our people safe.
