We chatted with Black Lives of Unitarian Universalism (BLUU) Executive Director, Lena Gardner, about the 2019 Harper-Jordan Memorial Symposium and what’s next with BLUU.
From the BLUU website – “The Harper-Jordan Memorial Symposium responds to a longing on the part of many Black Unitarian Universalists to more fully understand where they have been, who they are now, and how they hope to live out Unitarian Universalism as Black people. The Symposium is open to everyone, and is prioritizing spaces for Black people, Indigenous people and People of Color. This exciting symposium is named for Frances Ellen Watkins Harper (abolitionist, suffragist, author, Unitarian) and Rev. Joseph Jordan (the first Black ordained Universalist).” For more information about this event and BLUU in general go to http://www.blacklivesuu.com
The VUU streams live on Facebook every Thursday at 11 am ET. We talk social justice, Unitarian Universalism, religion, spirituality, and whatever else is topical and interesting!
Hosts: Meg Riley, Michael Tino, Aisha Hauser, and Christina Rivera; production support provided by Margalie Belizaire.
The VUU is brought to you by the Church of the Larger Fellowship.
