Adult Learning and Spiritual Practice: Upcoming Events
Reimagining Public Safety: A Circle of Peace • Wednesday, August 12 • 7:00-9:00 p.m.
This program has reached capacity. If you are interested in future programming on this topic, please email madeline@unityunitarian.org.
The Racial and Restorative Justice team is calling together a Circle of Peace to help us begin talking and learning about Reimagining Public Safety, how white people center police in maintaining personal safety, and how policing harms people of color and fails to keep them safe. All levels of interest are welcome; the Circle is open to people ages 15 and older. Most of the time will be spent sharing in the Peace Circle process to enhance listening and avoid crosstalk. This program is part of Unity's Finding Our Next Right Action efforts. All participants must preregister and are asked to read the MPD 150 report “A People’s Project Evaluating Policing” before attending. This first step in understanding multiple perspectives will be followed with an invitation into several ways for getting involved. The MPD 150 report is online at www.mpd150.com in both printed and audio formats.

A follow-up to Finding Our Next Right Action held on June 4, 2020 (participants do not need to have attended June 4). We’ve listened, we’ve discerned, we’ve created lists—what’s next? Come connect with others to learn more about and sign up for action steps generated from the “Finding Our Next Right Action” forum held on June 4 (see the doc outlining next steps here: https://bit.ly/nextrightstepsdoc). There is work enough for everyone — some of it personal, some of it within and some outside Unity Church.
Mano a Mano Responds to COVID in Bolivia and the Twin Cities

Nate Knatterud Hubinger, Mano a Mano’s Executive Director, will lead an online discussion about the challenges presented by lack of basic medical supplies during the Covid–19 pandemic, in Bolivia and in our local community, and how Mano a Mano has responded. We will learn about day-to-day life in communities that are surviving the pandemic with minimal material resources and revisit our understanding of cross-national, cross-cultural relationships during this shared global experience.
