Next Quarterly Meeting
About Us
Mission: To share experiences and provide support for our congregations’ deeper engagement in supporting Black Lives
Some of us met each other for the first time at the January 2016 UU Urban Ministry Summit on Black Lives Matter, and others have joined this email group more recently. We have felt many benefits from sharing our experiences about how our racial justice work is evolving at our various congregations. The purpose of this CWG is to continue to network among ourselves-as well as to share experiences going forward as we reach out to more potential allies in our local communities.
We have been meeting quarterly for over four years in various UU congregations around the state and now virtually. Our email group currently has over 100 members. We commit to both personal education and growth as well as creating opportunities for education and to support the work in our congregations. The Black Lives Matter Working Group collectively supports the following potentially allied organizations.
