Sunday, January 12th, “Lessons from the civil Rights Movement” with Rev. Dr. James Kubal-Komoto, Lead Minister
During the 1963 March on Washington, 250,000 people, including 1,500 Unitarian Universalists, descended on Washington, D.C. and heard the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King give his famous “I Have A Dream” speech. The gathering led to the passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, and marches in Alabama the next year led to the passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act. In the 60 years since, in this country and around the world, mass protests have grown more numerous and larger but less effective. This Sunday, as we honor the life and legacy of King, Rev. James asks what has changed and what the implications are for our current political situation.
Our 11:15 a.m. service will be streamed on YouTube as well as in person. To watch the service on YouTube, live or later, visit here.
(This page will be updated by January 23rd for the following Sunday’s service.)
