NVDA is more than protest—it’s a disciplined, grounded approach to confronting injustice through strategic action, moral clarity, and public witness. Now more than ever, we need to engage in strategic nonviolent direct action to fight back against the ruling class.
MarchOnHarrisburg invites you all to a nonviolent direct action workshop, where we'll provide you with the theoretical background, skills, and grounding necessary to participate in nonviolent direct actions.
Nonviolent civil disobedience is a necessary and powerful way to take action to dismantle political violence. This NVDA training will explore the basics of NVDA theory, how and why NVDA has the power to drive change, and how MarchOnHarrisburg utilizes NVDA to realize our demands. We’ll also provide basic information on de-escalation during actions, risking arrest, police interactions and your rights.
Over the past 8 years, MarchOnHarrisburg has participated in over 40 nonviolent direct actions and has led extensive trainings on the principles of nonviolence and how to utilize it in long-term campaigns.
