About this Event

Know Your Rights: Confidently Navigating Interactions with Law Enforcement

Presented by MahoganyBooks


If you were stopped by a law enforcement officer today, would you know what to say—and what not to say? Would you feel confident protecting your rights without escalating the situation?

Join us for an empowering, small-group workshop designed to help you navigate real-life encounters with law enforcement. Led by a federal law enforcement officer with over 20 years of experience, this interactive session will give you clear, practical guidance you can use immediately.

Through real-world examples, role-playing exercises, and a safe space for questions, you’ll walk away with:


  • A clear understanding of your rights under the law.
  • Proven strategies for effective, respectful communication during stops, searches, and questioning.
  • Confidence in asserting your rights without fear or uncertainty.
  • Knowledge of what to do after an encounter to protect yourself legally.

This workshop is designed especially with African American communities in mind, recognizing both the unique challenges and the power that comes with preparation. You’ll leave not only informed—but ready to advocate for yourself and others.

Seats are limited to ensure everyone receives personalized attention. Reserve your spot today.
