Picketer Training

Picketer Training at MTEA

Join us for an important Picket-Line Training Workshop hosted by the Milwaukee Teachers’ Education Association (MTEA) in collaboration with Voces de la Frontera/Comité Sin Fronteras.

This picket-line workshop strengthens the second prong of our rapid-response network—mobilizing quickly and safely in neighborhoods or at ICE facilities after actions have been verified and when families have been separated. Participants will learn:

• How to avoid arrest and understand legal considerations
• What to expect when arriving on-site
• How we communicate and coordinate to maintain a safe, disciplined, and effective picket line, especially in tense or fast-moving situations

We are also seeking singers, musicians, artists, and poets who want to contribute their gifts, helping our pickets become more visible, powerful, and energizing for the community.

Whether you’re new to this work or looking to deepen your involvement, your presence makes a difference.

All are welcome. Let’s train, prepare, and stand together.

Join us on Thursday, January 22nd from 5:00–7:00pm at the MTEA Office, 5130 W. Vliet St.  Registration is required to ensure enough space, please fill out the form below.
