Dr. King’s 3rd Step
January 15, 2023, at 10:00 a.m. Online and in-person Rev. Dr. Matthew Johnson
In his letter from Birmingham Jail, Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., outlined three steps to make social change. The third step, which he called “self-purification”, is very important but often skipped – then and now. We’ll look at how we ground our work for justice so that we approach this from our clear center instead of our anxiety or anger.
We will Share the Plate with BLUU We are Black Lives of Unitarian Universalism (BLUU). BLUU is committed to expanding the power and capacity of Black UUs within Unitarian Universalism; providing support, information, and resources for Black Unitarian Universalists; and justice-making and liberation for Black people through our faith.
