ENGLISH
The Alliance Together Against Racism introduces an Academy for you, for collectives and organizations to anchor the fight against racism in the city and across the Netherlands.
In this workshop, you will receive tips and tools for how to intervene when you witness racist or discriminatory comments.
What do you do when you hear someone make a racist remark and how do you let someone know that ‘joke’ wasn’t funny? In this Together against racism bystander intervention workshop, we provide participants with the tools to recognize racism and intervene in a safe and effective way. With this we will dive deeper into racist microagressions and practice different methods to act as a bystander. You will leave the workshop with some practical tools and more confidence to intervene!
