How should one address or react to the oppression of others?

(For context, I'm a queer guy in Canada)

Over the years there's been a massive wave in specifically right-wing backlash against queer people, racial minorities, etc., often involving exaggerated or outright false information being spread. I've seen a rise in sexism, transphobia, racism, etc., from the "anti-wokeness" popular in the US and Canada, calls to violence against these groups, etc.

I've been interested in Buddhism for a while now, though I never really delved deep into it for most of that time. I have read translations of the Heart Sutra, and I've watched a couple videos going over the basics of Buddhist teaching, but I will admit its not a lot.

I'm just wondering, from a Buddhist perspective (of whatever school of buddhism), how should one respond to this rise in hatred and violence against these marginalized groups? I understand that one should not respond with violence of course, but I feel like there is more I am missing.

For further context, my knowledge on Buddhist thought is mostly just a surface-level understanding of the Four Noble Truths and the Eight-Fold Path, regrettably I haven't really gotten any deeper as of yet.
