Description

The ACLU of Hawai‘i is excited to host a conversation about collective resistance in the face of increasing attacks on our democracy and civil rights. This event will feature Emily Hills, our Senior Staff Attorney, as the main speaker.

She will be tackling questions such as:

What can we do to resist the rise of a dictatorship?
What must be protected to prevent democratic backsliding?
How can we stay safe in a system that increasingly punishes dissent?

Pūpūs and drinks will be served. We hope to see you there!

The ACLU of Hawai‘i is a private, non-profit, non-partisan organization that has been protecting the civil rights and civil liberties of residents of the Hawaiian Islands since its inception in 1974.

With help from community partners and volunteers, the ACLU of Hawai‘i works to ensure that the government does not violate fundamental constitutional rights of everyone — regardless of race, socioeconomic status, gender expression, sexual orientation, or anything else. We fight for a safer, more just Hawai‘i.

Defending civil liberties in the state of Hawai‘i is a constant battle, but a rewarding one. We will continue to work daily in the courts, legislatures and out in the community to defend and preserve the individual rights and liberties guaranteed to every person in this country by the Constitution and laws of the United States. As an independent government watchdog, we are able to do this work with the support from individual donors.
