Community organizations have long offered Know Your Rights trainings to empower and protect people in the face of state violence. BLM DC’s Street Law 101 goes deeper—helping participants understand not only what the law says about our rights on paper but also how those rights are denied or distorted in real life. This interactive workshop breaks down legal rights, reveals the gaps between official policies and what happens on the streets, and equips you with practical knowledge to navigate police encounters safely.

With police presence growing stronger in our neighborhoods, this training will also provide strategies to recognize police abuse and build collective power to resist and end the occupation of our communities.

Pop by to learn, organize, and strengthen the networks that defend our freedom and dignity.
