On Tuesday, May 25, the Tri-City Interfaith Council hosted a wonderful training on how to help build safety, support, and solidarity if you're a bystander who witnesses some form of harassment in public. Our workshop leader, Courtney Mangus, from CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations), taught us five steps to take as a bystander, reminding us that we want to stay safe ourselves as we create safety for the person targeted with harassment, offer our support, and stand in solidarity.
After sharing this basic information, Courtney asked us to discuss in small groups several scenarios to brainstorm ways to effectively intervene as a bystander. While the training is much more effective than just reading through the slide deck, Ms. Mangus is allowing us to share her slide deck.
