SUMMARY:Introducing Anti-Oppression at UUCC
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, March 2nd at 6:30pm\n\nIntroducing Anti-Oppression at 
 UUCC:\n\nPlease join us for discussion aimed at antiracism and anti-oppres
 sion.\n\nThe following is excerpted from recent UUA statements (search: "U
 UA Conversations for Liberation"):\n\n"Unitarian Universalism is at a mome
 nt of great power and potential. We are making progress toward becoming a 
 faith movement where people of all backgrounds and identities can thrive t
 o challenge systems of oppression\, patriarchy and white supremacy. ...we 
 recommit ourselves to strive to become a fully inclusive and anti-oppressi
 ve community. This is an essential calling that arises from our Principles
  and theology. We recognize oppressive systems as violations of human dign
 ity\, demanding we challenge them both within and beyond our congregations
 . Systems of oppression hurt and dehumanize us all. We acknowledge we are 
 a part of the interdependent web of existence\, and that none of us are tr
 uly free until we are all liberated from oppression."\n\nWe are challenged
  by our faith movement to become a fully inclusive and anti-oppressive com
 munity. This work was actually started long ago by the Waking Up group\, a
 nd now we mean to take up this recent challenge and expand on these anti-o
 ppression and antiracism efforts.\n\nWe all have great respect for educati
 on and the transformation in understanding and perspective it can bring. S
 oon we will be offering more educational and training opportunities (pleas
 e join us for discussion and more information Monday March 2nd at 6:30pm) 
 aimed at antiracism and anti-oppression more broadly- just how do we becom
 e that fully inclusive community?\n\nWe invite you to come with us on a jo
 urney of learning\, transformation\, and liberation\n\n&nbsp\;\n\n&nbsp\;
