CALENDAR
Regardless of your age, sex, gender, race or any
variable characteristics, it’s always a good idea to have
some basic knowledge about how to defend yourself. Men
Against Rape Culture is partnering with the nonprofit
organization Warrior Sisters to offer a Bystander
Intervention: Basic Self-Defense Training. This training
will specifically focus on verbal and physical defense
skills. Warrior Sisters' lead trainer will be leading the
training. The group will be providing training on a variety of
tools and skills that can be used to de-escalate a dangerous
situation, as well as to defend yourself, and others, if
things have already escalated to violence.
The Bystander Intervention: Basic Self-Defense Training
will take place from 1-4 pm Saturday, Aug. 26, at the
Northwest Fencing Academy (436 Charnelton Street, Suite
100). The event is FREE and open to everyone, regardless
of skill level or experience. — Meerah Powell
