June 9, 2007 -- Transforming Racism, in Our Congregations and Our World

Saturday, June 9, UU Church of Berkeley, 9:00 a.m to 4:00 p.m. MultiCultural

Save the date and plan to attend Transforming Racism, in Our Congregations and Our World. This very special seminar will be co-facilitated by Swan Keyes and Abbazero. Swan Keyes is a Euro-American, Jewish educator who specializes in helping white people understand and unlearn their racial conditioning, in order to become better allies in the struggle to end racism. Abbazero is a Nigerian, Jamaican Hebrew Shaman and ritualist change agent.
This seminar will explore:
  • Social Justice work as Spiritual Practice
  • Why UU congregations remain predominantly white
  • What it means to be white in the U.S. and how racism impacts UU congregations today
  • How we can liberate ourselves from the bondage of social conditioning
  • How Unitarian Universalists of all backgrounds can work together to dismantle racism and build stronger, more inclusive, conscious, and loving communities

Registration is just $55, and due by May 26. To register or request more information, contact Susan Lankford, or call the Rev. Bonnie Dlott at (925) 256-4334
