New Tactics Online Database - Redesigned! All over the world people are using innovative tactics to help ensure human rights are preserved. In many cases, other human rights advocates would benefit from learning about these experiences. The New Tactics online database, recently redesigned, is a growing collection of such tactics, described in a way to be useful and even inspirational for others who can apply them to their own situation as is, or modify and combine tactics to form their own. We encourage you to browse these tactics, search for specific ones, ask questions, or start a discussion about them, and share your own experiences and innovative ways you approach in addressing a human rights issue close to your heart. We are actively seeking to add to this growing resource of new ways to foster a better world. Bookmark/Search this post with: |

Dialogue: So the whole world can watch
From the video "We were warriors".
From
behind the stools, white men start taunting the mixed row of mostly
black students who had the audacity to sit there. "He's so dark the
whole room is darkened." "Nobody ain't gonna sit beside them dirty
niggers." Those on the swiveling seats at the counter answer only with
an unshakable look of dignity. Frustrated, the men from behind start
pushing and shoving. Still no response from those on the stools. Then
they launch the attack: hurling obscenities, throwing milk shakes and
live cigarette buts, grabbing and punching. Lenses capture the scene.
The whole world watches in shock.
