DESCRIPTION:How do we cause change? \n\nAcross the country, ordinary citizens are 
 building increasing support for human rights, the BDS movement, and an end 
 to American complicity in the crimes against Palestinians. Many have had 
 impact despite biased media, corrupt politicians, government attempts to 
 curtail free speech, and public ignorance.  \n\nJoin us to hear how three 
 citizen activist groups have caused change in their communities on a 
 governmental, corporate, and public level. This workshop will offer 
 practical strategies, tools, and skills for effective human‑rights 
 advocacy at the federal, state, and local levels including on how to: 1) 
 develop a strategy for affecting change in your area, 2) build and manage a 
 team to meet your objectives, 3) build popular support for your campaign, 
 and 4) get the attention of governments, corporations and others and 
 motivate them to support your campaign.  \n\nWatch the curated videos 
 included in the registration confirmation email at your convenience ahead 
 of the discussion. \n\nJoin the workshop with:\n* Zeina Ashrawi Hutchison:
