The internet and social media can be a cesspool for igniting online hate speech turning into real-life violence, especially against marginalized communities. With Elon Musk's acquisition of Twitter and pledge to restore accounts of people who have a history of pushing disinformation, trolls, and harassing online, there are concerns about an increase in hate and extremism on social media.

Right To Be (formerly Hollaback!), and PEN America team up for the Bystander Intervention: How to be an Ally When You Witness Online Abuse training providing the tools needed to intervene safely and effectively in online abuse.

At Right To Be, bystander intervention training helps to combat hate, harassment, and racism. Community-based solutions, such as bystander intervention, can be a viable and powerful tool for enacting tangible change, even online.

The free, one-hour, interactive training uses Right To Be’s 5Ds of Bystander Intervention.
