Back to Events

Quaker non-violence trainer and author Eileen Flanagan will be leading a training to help people keep peace in the streets. Although it is especially geared for those playing a marshal/peacekeeping/safety role, all of us in these times can use skills in attentiveness and de-escalation.

TIME: Sat, May 16, 10:30am - 1:30pm

LOCATION: Greenpoint Library and Environmental Education Center
107 Norman Ave. at Leonard St., Brooklyn, NY 11222

The title, Non Violent Protest Training: How to be a Streetwise & Steady Peacekeeper, comes from the marshal workbook Eileen co-authored last summer with Daniel Hunter.
