Racism is in the news... Want to do something about it?
As Unitarian Universalists, we hope developing antiracist, anti-oppressive, and multicultural habits and skills will lead us to build the multicultural world of beloved community we dream about. Building the World We Dream About is a Unitarian Universalist program that seeks to interrupt the workings of racism and transform how people from different racial/ethnic groups understand and relate to one another. We will offer this intensive curriculum shortly for UUCT members and friends and anyone interested. To get a taste, come to the open workshop onSunday, September 8, 12:30 to 1:30.
