Immigrant Justice Summer# Call 5: How to Use Signal for Rapid Response Organizing in Your Community
When an ICE surge hits, community support floods in from every When ICE comes to your community, the window to coordinate is measured in minutes. A rapid response plan means nothing if your communication infrastructure isn’t already in place. This hands-on workshop trains you on how to use Signal to build the secure, layered communication structure your community needs to respond fast when it matters most.
In this workshop, we will cover:
- Why Signal: Why immigrant justice organizers use Signal for rapid response coordination, and what makes it the right tool for high-stakes, secure communication in a surge scenario.
- How organizers are using it right now: A look at how immigrant justice organizers across the country, including during Operation Metro Surge in Minneapolis, have used Signal to coordinate in real time across coalitions.
- Hands-on practice: Live walkthrough of how to set up the Signal structures you need so you leave with a working setup.
You’ll leave with a Signal infrastructure ready to use the next time ICE comes to your community. This is the fifth and final call in the Immigrant Justice Summer training series, open to all Indivisible members..
A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
