Please register through Eventbrite to get updates and event location details: tinyurl.com/NWL012926Join NWL for our first meeting of 2026. We’ll cover the authoritarian threat, stories of noncooperation in these times, how noncooperation has been used to defeat authoritarians and fascists, and what we — as part of a mass collective resistance movement across the U.S. — can do to meet this moment, fight back, and win.
This training will be delivered by NWL founding member and union organizer, Candi Churchill, using material (with encouragement and permission) from the Freedom Trainers. Candi will also draw on her own experiences within the women's liberation and union movement--including lessons from the southern Black Freedom Struggle and the women's liberation revolutionary period of the late-1960s, which make up the roots of NWL. The expectation is that participants will use the training to engage in brave conversations about fighting authoritarianism and recruit more people into the movement, so we can turn things around.
Freedom Trainers is a national network of expert trainers—including leaders from the Horizons Project, Choose Democracy, Beautiful Trouble, and Free DC—working to counter democratic backsliding through strategic noncooperation education, based on research from hundreds of examples of democratic backsliding and creating a "U-turn" away from authoritarianism towards more democracy.
