Tackling White Supremacy at the GA (Leora)
The extent to which white supremacy permeates the institutions of Unitarian Universalism and the urgent need to finally do something about this has been a major topic of discussion and action at the GA, primarily as a result of the resignation of former UUA president Peter Morales and others in the wake of criticisms of the hiring practices of the UUA and its white supremacy culture. It has been addressed by many speakers and been the topic of a lot of workshops and discussion. The issue is so monumental and so important that I don't feel I can say what I feel and think about it in the exhausted and time-pressed state I am in. However, if anyone is actually reading this blog, I strongly urge you to follow the articles being posted by UU World covering some of the statements and actions that are taking place on this incredibly important issue.
