Inspired to Action by an RC Workshop and Class
On the day following the European Leaders’ Workshop, three RCers in Bern (Switzerland) and their friends called a spontaneous George Floyd solidarity action. Five hundred people showed up at short notice!
We had a great ongoing class about eliminating racism with speak-outs from People of the Global Majority (PGM). Afterward I found myself taking many actions—reaching out to family and friends who are PGM, intervening at the school where I teach on behalf of students who are PGM, and writing on my network about solidarity actions in Europe that people in the United States might not be aware of.
