Thank you for sharing this. And for the continued work of BLUU in showing ways we can all live more deeply and more honestly in this faith. I am so grateful.

From @BlackLivesUU "To be clear, we knew this was coming. Coordinated White violence — both rhetorical and physical — always shows itself in response to Black and Brown self-determination." https://medium.com/@BlackLivesUU/reclaiming-our-house-reflections-on-liberation-faith-white-victimhood-a1064e5ebdbe …

Racist and oppressive even without that critical flaw. Not a good idea, anywhere. #BanFacialRecognition @BrennanCenter @RightsDissent @dwatchnews_nam @MTaylorCanfield @EFF @PopResistance @peoplesorganiz1 @SURJNYC @Blklivesmatter @BlackLivesUU @UUJEC_COM @UUFaithActionNJ @350NJhttps://twitter.com/ColorOfChange/status/1171476394003427329 …

How do Black folks with multiracial families engage in these contexts? Join Vanessa Julye, Rev. Angela Shannon, Rev. Dr. Jennifer S. Leath, and Bishop Tonyia Rawls to learn about how folks in other faith traditions have wrestled with these questions. http://blacklivesuu.com/symposium pic.twitter.com/hPrppXqTvc

What does it mean to be a participant in a faith tradition where Black folks have specifically carved out communities & congregations that center their own needs, heritage & culture? What are the benefits & challenges that arise in these spaces? http://Blacklivesuu.com/symposium pic.twitter.com/AukcwASSUa

We are at a pivotal moment in history where many people who claim a faith want to know how decision-makers will use a social ethic and a moral center to correct the injustices we see happening across the country. https://buff.ly/2HGLAlb pic.twitter.com/4BOggb4t07

Many Black UUs have articulated a desire to engage the traditional sources of our faith with depth and rigor. At the same time, Black UUs with a multifaith heritage and/or identity have managed to find a place for themselves within our living tradition. http://blacklivesuu.com/symposium pic.twitter.com/2iLzIB2XQ4

Because providing or receiving pastoral or spiritual care is not dependent on any one set of beliefs or traditions, pastoral care & spiritual care providers make a commitment to relate gently & skilfully with individuals’, their sense of self & emotional and spiritual resources.

For @BLUUMinistry “spirit” implies energy, connection & power. Spirituality is both an awareness of our relationships to & with everything and everyone around us, including ourselves & an appreciation of purpose, presence & meaning-making of the world as we understand it & beyond

Pastoral care is a model of emotional & spiritual support that can be found in all cultures and traditions. Those who provide pastoral care offer support to folks in the joys, sorrows & uncertainties associated w/specific life events.

Black folks, UU or otherwise, requesting pastoral and/or spiritual care can reach our Community Minister and folks from @BLUUMinistry by calling/texting 984-219-8711. We will respond to any calls or text messages within 24 hours.https://www.blacklivesuu.com/bluumin-officehours …
