Recognizing and Resisting Fascism as People of Faith

December 12, 2023 @ 8:00 pm

$25

Like many Unitarian Universalists, volunteers and members of UUs for Social Justice have been very concerned with the real and present danger to our democracy in recent years and the rise of anti-democracy movements. So many of us have been monitoring and fighting the tilt from oligarchy to autocracy during the past several election cycles. Now many are worried about flirtations with fascism.

To help respond to this circumstance, UUSJ presents one of our denomination’s most celebrated thinkers on these topics, the Rev. Cecilia Kingman. Rev. Kingman is the author of the acclaimed 2023 Berry Street Address, titled “My Little Pony Was Right: Reflections on Fascisms Without and Within.”

Please join us on December 12, when Rev. Kingman will share her thoughts on how to recognize the less well-known characteristics of rising fascism, as well as her conviction that our faith as Unitarian Universalists compels us to resist it in all its forms.
