In the Moment: Bystanders Interrupting Violence

In the Moment: Bystanders Interrupting Violence

Recent months have seen a terrifying increase in both harassment and violence towards the Asian and Asian American communities. Unfortunately, this is only the most recent in a series of attacks on minority communities within the United States. The insidiousness of this violence often means that bystanders are called to intervene to de-escalate a conflict and interrupt violence. This session will explore the role of bystanders in confronting violent activity and best practices for bystander intervention.
