Resistance is Fertile - Audio

The Power of Cultural Humility and Apologizing - Audio
26/03/2023 Duração: 17minHumility is not mentioned explicitly in the eight principles of Unitarian Universalism. Yet, humility is central to many faith traditions in which we are grounded, as well as the faith traditions some of us continue to practice in addition to Unitarian Universalism. Cultural humility, in particular, is essential to our commitment to becoming a more diverse and inclusive community. But it asks us to be vulnerable, and to apologize often and sincerely. So, how can practicing cultural humility also be powerful? Lata addresses this question, drawing from her own experiences as a Hindu-Unitarian Universalist.

Start With Your Neighbor - Audio
19/02/2023 Duração: 15minThe Golden Rule – love thy neighbor as thyself – appears in some form in just about every religion.

-
Kumbaya - Audio

The Messy Middle - Audio
