Speaker: When empires are in decline, they often create spectacles and distractions to keep much of the citizenry from seeing the depths of debauchery to which the society has sunk. Speaker: Music has been an integral part of the Queer community for its entire history. From innuendo to bravely speaking our truths out loud; major hits to B side and forgotten references; it buoyed us along and let us know that we existed, that there IS a place for us and that me can be loved. Speaker: How I stumbled face-first into the mutual aid networks of my new home in Minneapolis, learned to help and protect my neighbors, and what it looks like going forward. Speaker: Democracy cannot survive in a post-truth society. The truth and evidence-based critical thinking matter if we are to develop the shared understanding of reality that makes beloved community possible Speaker: Democracy cannot survive increasing income equality. As the gap between the rich and poor widens so does the inequality in their political power and participation, with fewer and fewer people controlling our economic and political processes. Speaker: Karrisa feels it is her duty to her Indigenous Relatives to help create safe spaces where our people can gain knowledge together. To show that we are good allies, please wear red, especially red dresses, if at all possible. Speaker: Emergency Preparedness is vital knowledge, at home, work, and church. Being aware of your surroundings and knowing what to do in case of a medical or weather emergency or even a hostile situation can give you the confidence to save lives, including your own. We will discuss the various types of emergencies you may face here at church, what to do during those emergencies and what the EP Team is planning to make our gathering place safer for everyone. Speaker: Combining two near and dear Unitarian Universalist services, Earth Day and our flower communion, we ask everyone to bring at least one flower to share. Discussion will be on how plastic is not evil, but needs to be honored in what it offers to us as well as how we can rethink, renew, reduce, reuse, recycle, and upcycle! Speaker: In a world in which those in poverty and persons of color are much more likely to experience environmental injustice, what will it take to attain environmental justice and ensure that all persons have access to clean water, clean air, and nutritious food.

Davies In a world in which those in poverty and persons of color are much more likely to experience environmental injustice, what will it take to attain environmental justice and ensure that all persons have access to clean water, clean air, and nutritious food.

Karrisa Hodge is President and founder of Missing Murdered Indigenous Women Chahta. She has ancestry to 3 Tribal Nations from her mother and fathers’ side, but she is a Tribal member of the Caddo Nation of Oklahoma to honor her auntie Wanda and Ibah (ee-bah) David. As a mother of 3 and a bonus to one she strives to be a strong woman role model for her children. She does this because she knows how influential that can be. Her biggest role models and strongest women that made an impact in her life were her auntie Wanda Querterbitty and her grandmother Elsa Garcia. Karrisa believes especially in the matriarchal tribes she’s a part of, that women are life givers, leaders and influencers. Karissa feels it is her duty to her Indigenous Relatives to help create safe spaces where our people can gain knowledge, together.
