America Isn’t Itself When It’s Afraid (Amnesty International)

When a society becomes overrun by fear, it can be primed to accept policies that undermine human rights while providing an illusion of safety and security. We’ve seen it time and again throughout U.S. history – with disastrously counterproductive results.

The “America I Believe In” responds to fear, hate, and bigotry by building a visible, active constituency to push back against those who try to convince us that human rights and national security are mutually exclusive. Through statements of solidarity, your local groups, student organizations, and places of worship can demonstrate to your communities and to your elected officials that the America we believe in leads with human rights.

The on-demand webinar offers a skillshare on how to organize these statements of solidarity, and what to do with them once you’ve created them.
