“The Responsibilities of Privilege”
Reverend Tim Temerson
As we remember and celebrate the life and ministry of Dr. Martin Luther King, today’s service will examine the reality and persistence of white privilege and ask what religious traditions like Unitarian Universalism must do dismantle racism and white supremacy. The service will be followed by a conversation in the sanctuary and childcare will be provided.
