"Schools have become battlegrounds and recruitment sites for extremist organizing and white nationalist
groups targeting young people. Youth and adults are susceptible to rhetoric from white nationalist groups
and conspiracy theories. This session will empower educators to recognize and respond to white nationalist
rhetoric in the classroom. Participants will leave equipped to help students understand tactics like
scapegoating, false equivalency, conspiracy theories, and hateful ideologies disguised as humor. They will
also gain access to a free toolkit (published by the Western States Center) to support prevention strategies
throughout their school and communities."
