Personal Theology will host the chairs of two vital groups at UUCB: the People of Color Caucus (POCC) and the Whites Opposed to White Supremacy (WOWS).
Helen Tinsley-Jones, chair of POCC, and Julia Rogers, chair of WOWS, will share their personal stories of religious/spiritual herstory plus how they came to UUCB.
They will enlighten us as to how they work together and with others to foster a community of love, acceptance, and self-reflection.
Helen and Julia are talented, thoughtful, and gentle in teaching others how to overcome fear and to be kind to and recognize all beings as worthy of love and respect. You will truly enjoy and take away valuable nuggets from this heartfelt, timely and personal conversation with Helen and Julia on “Beloved Community.”
