Rev. Jerry Maynard will be holding a 2-hour webinar focused on the roles of clergy members during street demonstrations. He will also be providing guidelines for what to do before, during, and after a street demonstration. Participants will learn what to bring, how to stay calm, what to do in uncertain situations, and how to look out for other demonstrators. Plus Jerry will discuss actions participants can do to maintain physical distance to stay safe during the pandemic. This training gives participants practical tools as they work to create a cohesive culture of peace in their local organizing community.
This training will be facilitated by Rev. Jerry Maynard, a Peace Activist, Community Organizer, Priest, and Nonviolence Educator with an emphasis on anti-oppression tactics, and the Spirituality of Nonviolence. Ordained in the Independent Sacramental Movement, Rev. Jerry tries to bring the daily practice of radical nonviolence and his work of movement building to both church & society.
