Full Spectrum Resistance

Saturday June 22, 9am-5pm and Sunday June 23, 9am - 5pm.

Welcome to the Full Spectrum Resistance Teach-In, a two-day event inspired by Aric McBay's groundbreaking work. McBay's book delves into activism stories worldwide, from Martin Luther King Jr. to local movements like the G20 protests in Toronto, ON. It's all about understanding how institutions have tried to dismantle activist movements and learning from history to overcome their tactics.

Our teach-in is for activists of all kinds – social and environmental – to deepen their knowledge and refine their skills. We aim to build a strong culture of resistance and equip campaigns with effective strategies for success.

But this event isn't just about Aric's work. We'll also feature diverse speakers from different movements who offer a range of perspectives and practical approaches. We want to show that our differences can be a strength, not a weakness.

In addition to talks and discussions led by Aric, we'll have activities like mindfulness sessions, arts, and music. This is more than just learning – it's about building connections, having fun, and leaving feeling re-energized and hopeful about our collective future.

We want attendees to leave feeling hopeful and connected, with a deeper sense of community. We're committed to making sure this event supports your well-being throughout the day.
