An educational seminar on bystander awareness and intervention when witnessing bullying or harassment. Personal stories and audience participation will be encouraged.
We’ll talk through five strategies for intervention developed by the Right to Be organization – Distract, Delegate, Document, Delay, and Direct – and share personal stories about ways you helped others and protected your own safety while intervening.
This is a story-sharing event, so please bring along stories about how you may have intervened when confronted with harassment events in public while minimizing risk to yourself. Or, alternatively, bring along stories about when you were the subject of harassment and how intervention may have improved the outcome.
Kogawa House will give away one free copy of I've Got Your Back: The Indispensable Guide to Stopping Harassment When You See It by Jorge Arteaga and Emily May of Right to Be (righttobe.org), formerly Hollaback.
Additional copies will be available for sale ahead of the event. Reserve your copy by sending an email to info@kogawahouse.com.
