As the nation reckons with historic levels of violent hate crimes and threats to its democracy, we must continue the decades-old fight for democracy, social justice, and civil rights.

Let us show that we UUs responded to the call 60 years ago, and we are still in the struggle for justice today. Let us celebrate the radical inclusion our faith calls us to champion, and how that informs our advocacy for just and equitable policy.
