UU Women’s Federation August Events!

Join Our Upcoming Programs. We are excited to announce our upcoming events this month, including a conversation on “Art as Resistance” and our Monthly Reads meet-up. Join us for these engaging programs and be part of the conversation!

Conversations are a way for experts to bring their knowledge base into our community. This month we are inviting two speakers who use music as a part of their activism and showcase how they use their talents to further justice work.

Our Monthly Reads meet-up allows an entry point into our priority issues and supports individuals looking to build on their understanding to be better allies and co-conspirators. Join us in experiencing some of the latest award-winning books, life-changing articles, and dazzling other media as we use these tools for justice. THIS MONTH: We’re reading the essay “We Should All Be Feminists” by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Community Gatherings are a safe, women and gender-expansive space to grow and learn from our wider community of activists, advocates, allies, and co-conspirators. Each month, we highlight a different topic and uplift the voices of women around the country as we discuss issues of the day, strategize about work we’re doing, and get perspective and inspiration from each other.

Our workshop series is a way for members to deepen their activism and organizing. This month, Ann will walk us through the Social Change Ecosystem. The Social Change Ecosystem Framework, developed by Deepa Iyer in 2017, is a tool to clarify values, identify roles, and support justice activism work. It identifies 10 roles that contribute to social change and can be useful at the personal, organizational, or collaborative level. What roles do you most often take? What role does your organization take? Do we all have to be in the streets with protest signs in order to contribute to the movement for collective liberation? This workshop is an introduction to the Framework and a discussion about its application in UU contexts.
