Welcome to the Leading UU Culture Change Resource Collection!
Note: This is the advanced Anti-Racism, Anti-Oppression, Multicultural module, the “301-level” to the Multicultural RE module’s “101-level”. This is the materials used in the training with live sessions but there are no gatherings included. To count this as a Sparks Module for the credentialing program requires taking the training with live sessions.
This is a collection of the resources used in the live training class for those who would like access.
These resources help participants:
- Imagine a Unitarian Universalism that does not yet exist, where all people are welcome to bring their whole selves to our pluralist faith;
- Receive a space, resources, and materials for holding conversations about dismantling white supremacy culture in Unitarian Universalism;
- Lift up the needs of children, youth, and adults of color and their families and identify supports that should be part of a changed culture;
- Examine power, both formal and informal, in their professional setting;
- Identify points of influence and learn how to effectively use power to create culture change;
- Consider leadership structures and configurations in Unitarian Universalist congregations and identify ways to work collaboratively with other leaders in creating culture change within a variety of different structures and contexts; and
- Affirm and support religious educators in their central role in bringing about positive culture change in congregations and in the UUA.
