Join our UUCC Workshop:
Saturday, June 20 at 12 pm ET, 9 am PT, 10 am MT, 11 am CT
Facilitators: Diane Pansire, Dr. Kimberly Arias, Denise Moorehead
How does extreme wealth shape our democracy, our communities, and our daily lives? What role does federal policy play in widening or reducing economic inequality? And what might Unitarian Universalist values ask of us in this moment?
This June, UUCC will host a workshop exploring class, wealth and public policy in an era of increasing economic concentration. Together, we will examine how federal policies related to taxation, housing, labor, healthcare, education and social programs influence who has opportunity, security and power in American society.
The workshop is designed to be thoughtful, accessible and grounded in curiosity rather than ideology. Participants do not need any background in economics or politics. Through discussion, reflection and real-world examples, we will consider how systems shape lived experience and how our faith calls us toward dignity, fairness, compassion and the common good.
Whether you are deeply engaged in these questions or simply curious to learn more, all are welcome. We hope this conversation will deepen understanding, foster respectful dialogue, and encourage us to reflect together on what justice and interdependence mean in our time.
The workshop is being offered in partnership with the UUA General Assembly Program and is open to all GA attendees.
