About the Event: 

"Join TransRooted for a Legal Observer Training to learn how to protect protest rights and document events safely, ethically, and effectively. Legal observers play a crucial role in protecting civil liberties by witnessing and recording law enforcement interactions at demonstrations.

This hands-on training, led by Aurora of TransRooted, will prepare volunteers to serve as Legal Observers at protests, marches, and community actions.

Legal observers act as neutral witnesses — documenting police-protester interactions, ensuring accountability, and supporting the right to peaceful assembly. In this session, we’ll cover: • The role and ethics of legal observers • How to safely document incidents and interactions • Your constitutional rights when observing • How to report, debrief, and protect evidence

No prior legal experience is needed. All are welcome who can commit to neutrality and safety in the field.

A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values."
