SUMMARY:Know Your Rights at Work and School | CAIR-SFBA
DESCRIPTION:Given the rise in anti-Palestinian hate and Islamophobia we have seen across Bay Area schools\, CAIR-SFBA is providing a joint Know Your Rights (KYR)/Community Safety training for students and parents to discuss student rights\, bullying\, and free speech. \nJoin this workshop to learn practical strategies for handling identity-based harassment and discrimination\, followed by a Q&A session. \n11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. | Saturday\, October 19 | MCC Prayer Hall | Join us in person or watch live at mcceastbay.org/live \nThe CAIR speakers are Jeffrey Wang (Senior Civil Rights Attorney) and Riyad Sood (Paralegal). \nAll who attend leave with the reassurance that they have legal protections to speak up and support our brothers and sisters in Palestine. We also aim to ensure that we provide appropriate tools for folks to feel more confident and prepared to de-escalate potential situations of hate/harassment. \n– More CAIR-MCC co-sponsored talks: https://mcceastbay.org/cair \nAbout the speakers \nJeffrey Wang is the Senior Civil Rights Attorney for the San Francisco Bay Area office of the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR-SFBA).
