Sign up today to learn these crucial skills as allies.
Indivisibles,
We know your notifications are being flooded with asks and updates. We know that this conversation can be uncomfortable and challenging. But this moment calls on all of us to be engaged and educated, which is why we wanted to make sure you know about the workshop we are hosting TONIGHT at 8 PM ET on relational organizing and allyship. During the workshop, Indivisibles and allies everywhere will have space to discuss how to escalate white folks and non-Black people of color from allies to accomplices, both in casual conversations and in concrete anti-racist actions within our communities.
Please join us tonight, June 4, at 8 PM EST at indivisible.org/livetraining or find us live on Twitter and Facebook. You can also still RSVP at the link above to get a reminder right before we go live.
We hope you can join us for this important conversation.
In solidarity, Yash Mori Director of Digital Strategy and Engagement

Subject: This Thursday -- join us for a workshop on how to do the work to show up for Black lives.
Indivisibles,
The first week of the month we usually host our monthly National Activist Call, but this week we want to address all allies in how they can actively show up for Black lives at this crucial moment. We’re hosting a workshop this Thursday, June 4th at 8 PM ET to create a space for Indivisibles and allies everywhere to discuss relational organizing and the responsibility we have to escalate white folks and non-Black people of color from allies to accomplices, both in casual conversations and in concrete anti-racist actions within our communities.
The murder of George Floyd, an unarmed Black man in Minneapolis, and Breonna Taylor, tragically lost to a no-knock police raid in Louisville, and several other Black lives taken by police violence is not a new occurrence in this country. For too long, Black Americans have been alone in advocating for themselves -- even if it disproportionately exposes them to mental, physical, and emotional harm. This should not be a fight taken up only by the most profoundly affected.
This moment calls for an increased initiative on the behalf of allies everywhere to step up and educate themselves on how to be part of the solution. Here's how to join on Thursday --
What: Workshop on Relational Organizing Amidst Racial Violence
Who: Indivisible’s Training and Organizing Team
