The Constitution guarantees some rights, but how do you know what is relevant? The fact that we have rights does not always mean that the police will respect them. That’s why it’s important for you to know your risks, too.

When we are protesting or otherwise interacting with law enforcement, knowing our rights is an important part of staying safe. And vocally asserting our rights is part of assess risk and can make it harder for police to violate our rights.

Join this training with Free DC and the National Lawyers Guild to learn best practices for interacting with law enforcement in-the-moment. You’ll also learn what information to consider in advance in order to assess risk and prepare for possible police encounters.
