what can we do? || 6: COMBAT POLITICAL VIOLENCE

Today we're talking about how to combat the common tactics that perpetrators of political violence rely on from the HOPE guide (linked below):

Combat the cover-up with the Reveal – Expose the injustice.
Combat devaluation + Redeem – Validate the target.
Combat reinterpretation + Reframe – Interpret the event as an injustice.
Combat official channels + Redirect – Mobilize support and avoid official channels.
Combat intimidation or rewards + Resist – Resist intimidation and bribes.
