Welcome to the Bystander Intervention blog

Bystander Intervention is a family of easy-to-use, nonviolent principles and tactics that anyone can use to de-escalate incidents of hate speech and harassment, particularly incidents in which a member of a minority community is targeted in a public space.

We can think of bystander intervention as a basic set of skills that everyone should learn, just as we all learn how to tie our shoes or drive a car.

This lightweight blog is the sister site to the Bystander Intervention Resources pages.  Together, the resources pages and the blog form a collection of information and pointers to US-based training in, and resources related to Bystander Intervention.

Individual resource pages:
