Lifelong Learning

The third and fourth principles in Unitarian Universalism emphasize a belief in lifelong learning and growth. As adults, we often find ourselves shifting in our beliefs and discovering more questions about the universe and our place in it. First Universalist encourages adults to join in discussions with others to explore and make meaning of our world.

ACTIVISM THAT WORKS

Date/Time: Friday, March 17, 6:30 – 8:30 pm

Location: Gathering Room

Description: Join the Adult RE Council for the third installment of the Activism that Works documentary series. Our upcoming documentary is entitled “Crip Camp.” In the early 1970s, teenagers with disabilities faced a future shaped by isolation, discrimination and institutionalization. Camp Jened, a ramshackle camp “for the handicapped” (a term no longer used) in the Catskills where campers experienced liberation and full inclusion as human beings. Their bonds endured as many migrated West to Berkeley, California — a hotbed of activism where friends from Camp Jened realized that disruption, civil disobedience, and political participation could change the future for millions. This film will start promptly at 6:30 pm and is 108 minutes long. We will have time for a short discussion following the film.
