In correlation with The Audre Lorde Project’s Political Education series, the living room cypher is a chance to learn concrete skills for using community-based strategies to challenge hate violence and police violence in your hood. Living room cypher night is an opportunity to learn more about our anti-violence work while also putting our plans into action.

This month we’ll be focusing on police violence. We’ll be watching a film and having a brief discussion.

 Open to Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Two Spirit, Trans, and Gender Non Conforming people of color and Allies!
