The Transformation Table

TAB helps participants recognize when they are bystanders, analyze situations, and evaluate the consequences for everyone involved. They learn what inhibits and what promotes active bystandership and how to move forward with moral courage. 

TAB heightens bystanders’ power. It teaches how bystanders can interrupt discriminatory harm doing and generate positive actions by others. Active bystandership does not mean aggression against the harm doer. It means taking responsible action to help people in need instead of remaining passive and becoming complicit. 

Bystanders gain the competencies they need if they decide to take action when they witness something they feel is unfair, or wrong, or troubling.
