Collective Courage for Authoritarian Times!
In this time of rising authoritarianism, we are called to deeply understand the political dynamics of the moment we’re in, what works in the wake of authoritarian power grabs, and how to strengthen our collective courage, imagination, and capacity to act together.

Join the Freedom Trainers workshop!
West Seattle (RSVP for address)
Saturday, December 6th
9:30 am-12:30 pm and 1:30 pm – 4:30 pm

Across the world, movements from Brazil to South Korea, from Serbia to Sudan have shown that the most powerful force against authoritarian takeover is strategic noncompliance—the organized refusal to cooperate with systems of harm, coupled with the disciplined building of people power and solidarity. These collective strategies have repeatedly prevented the full consolidation of authoritarian regimes and, in many cases, helped bring them down.

Drawing from the open-source training developed by Daniel Hunter and scholars of authoritarian regimes, this six-hour training offers a deep dive into the strategy and practice of noncompliance—how ordinary people can disrupt authoritarian power and grow the strength of coordinated resistance.

In the morning, we’ll ground in global history and movement lessons—how authoritarian systems gain control and how communities have successfully disrupted that trajectory. In the afternoon, we’ll turn toward embodied, practical skill-building: learning how to move together with clarity and purpose, stay grounded under pressure, and apply these learnings to your own context.
