School of Peace & Freedom

Where new and experienced activists come together to share skills, ask hard questions, and mobilize across generations. Online, in person, and in our local communities.

About the School of Peace and Freedom

Seasoned activists share lessons learned on the frontlines, from standing against war and militarism to organizing for civil rights, LGBTQ+ liberation, and environmental justice. Young activists share lived experiences and new ways of mobilizing. History repeats itself. So we share knowledge to stop the cycle.

Through workshops, teach-ins, and deep discussions, we explore how to create change. It’s about building power and a culture of care to meet the challenging moment we’re in, together, across generations.
