Kenny Wiley and Lena K. Gardner join us from the Black Lives of UU organizing collective. What a full and deep conversation about immigration, the threats to penalize protestors and how that will change organizing tactics, the need to move from reactionary to visionary, the life-giving form of creativity around resistance. Plus, Kenny, Lena and host Aisha Hauser made a passionate and compassionate call for white UUs to step up both their internal and external work around anti-racism and anti-oppression.

168: Prophetic Faith Development with Judith Frediani

By: Quest for Meaning
We talk with Judith Frediani about religious educators as community organizers and how they apply an intersectional lens in curricula that benefits all parts of congregational life. We also go deep into rankism and the many ways people assert their superiority. In our UU faith movement, this manifests itself around credentialing for religious educators and potential fragility of ministers. Judith has long been a staunch advocate for religious educators and the importance of their leadership in UUism. At the 2016 UUA General Assembly, she was recognized for her outstanding contributions to religious education. Visit http://bit.ly/thevuu168 for resources mentioned in this episode.

Peter is a well-regarded writer/thinker and a source for national media. Follow his work:

Peter finds inspiration and hope in this quote by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (referenced at the end of the show):

A [person] should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of [their] life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful which God has implanted in the human soul.
