Unitarian Universalist Church of Petaluma
825 Middlefield Dr, Petaluma, CA 94952
Coffee, snacks and lunch provided
Sliding scale $25-50. No one turned away for lack of funds.
Please RSVP to Annie at 707-480-2315, adobbskramer@northbayop.org
Training Details:
- Rights: what are they and where do they come from? How do we exercise them in our community?
- Our work in the regulatory system – who is truly being regulated, and can we do more? Explore how conventional regulatory structure of law limits our ability to make meaningful change.
- The origin of corporate “rights” and why laws seem to protect corporations not people and the planet. Understand how excess corporate power in our legal and political system DENIES our rights.
- Rights of nature as local, national, and international movement.
- What communities are doing differently – how rights-based organizing works.
- Learn how nearly 200 communities across the U.S. – including most recently Mendocino California —have begun to assert local control to protect the rights of their residents, their communities, and nature.
