Know Your Rights at Pride: Interacting with Police

June 10, 2023 @ 11:00 am 1:00 pm

Pride was born out of the revolutionary spirit of trans people, particularly trans women of color, and has always been about our collective liberation.  

This summer, Wyomingites will celebrate the culture and diversity of the LGBTQ+ and Two Spirit community at Pride festivals across the state. Folks can expect music, dancing, and plenty of fun! 

Yet, we know it’s important to recognize Pride began with protest and for some, the legacy of brutality and abuse against the LGBTQ+ and Two Spirit community by police continues today.  

That’s why you need to know your rights. Join the ACLU of Wyoming and Laramie PrideFest for an informational training on your rights when interacting with police.  

DETAILS:
11 a.m. - 1 p.m.
@ The Collective, 100 S. 2nd St., Laramie, WY

Encounters with law enforcement officials can be stressful and scary. People have various experiences with law enforcement, some of which are not always fair or legal. Knowledge is power.
