Figuring out what it's all about. A First Look at Selma →. Memorial of the Martyrs. March 6, 2015.

We are gathered at the historic Tabernacle Baptist Church in Selma, a blend of faiths and faces, packed together and singing for all we’re worth. But those names are real tonight. The families of the martyrs are here. We sing verses ...

Figuring out what it's all about. The House of Dance and Feathers. A More Tender Journey →. New Orleans: Windows into Justice. January 16, 2014. This trip was also different from the others I’ve gone on because it wasn’t just a social justice immersion trip — it was also a training to teach people how to lead these sorts of trips themselves. There is no kind of learning as effective as the hands-on type, and so to learn how to lead immersion trips, we. An organization that helps the homeless population i...

Figuring out what it's all about. Is She Coming to You? March 7, 2015. I met a woman here in Selma — a fine, strong, intelligent woman. She’s savvy, and involved in racial justice, and politically conscious. She’s a motivated, connected activist, and she’s in it for the long haul. She’s also NOT a Unitarian Universalist.
