Stuff Jimmie Taught Me, Rev. Lynn Hopkins

The way that Jimmie Ilachild lived his life brought so much light and learning. Some, I knew already, or thought I did. Some was never spoken. Some of it was about what not to do. It was all a gift.

Good Guys with White Hats, Rev. John L. Saxon
UUs engaged in the work of social justice and dismantling racism often see ourselves as the “good guys with white hats.” But the world isn’t made up of “good guys with white hats” and “bad guys with black hats.” All of us, even we “good guys” who are working for justice and freedom, are not entirely good or bad and, as Alexander Solzhenitsyn wrote,”the line separating good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being.”

Rev. Saxon is the Executive Director of the Unitarian Universalist Justice Ministry of North Carolina.
