Beloved Conversations Virtual 2020: August 27, 2020
The REAL Team is thrilled to announce that Beloved Conversations is resuming this fall with a virtual format. Beloved Conversations is a great introduction for members of UCE who have not previously done substantial personal work on understanding equity and inclusion, on race and on other forms of oppression.
Beloved Conversations: Virtual is designed and offered for the 2020-2021 church year with a new curriculum organized in three “phases” that resonate with earlier versions but have vastly new features and a three-pronged program of Within, Among, and Beyond. Click here for more information on the program. The price for a lay UU Individual is $150. Additional information on pricing can be found by clicking the button below.
The REAL Team along with the UCE Anti-Oppression Task Force urge you to consider enrolling! It is vital to our work as a faith community that we all partake in learning and self-reflection on the racist world in which we live, preparing us to act for justice.
Will you join in the learning along with other UCE folks? We will get a 10% group discount for groups of 10-19, and a 20% discount for groups of 20 or more. Please contact Martha Holman holman.martha@gmail.com if you wish to register or lean more about the program. Group registration deadline with REAL Team is September 12th. (Online individual registration deadline is September 20th.)
Additional info on pricing:
Reparations Note: White participants are encouraged to consider paying an additional $50 (for a total of $200 per person), in recognition of the historic legacy of racist economic policies and the ways in which generational wealth and greater access to economic opportunity have privileged white people as a group for hundreds of years. We will use these extra funds to provide scholarships to those who need it to participate in this program.
Equity Note: Regardless of your racial identity, sliding scale pricing and full scholarships are available to those who need them.
Interdependence Note: Regardless of your racial identity, if your class privilege allows you to pay more so that others may pay less, please consider adding an additional contribution to your total.
