Racial Justice

 

“Racism and white supremacy culture is killing our bodies, killing our spirits, and killing our humanity.”
– Rev. Jen Crow, First Universalist Church of Minneapolis

Through long-term education, service, advocacy and witness, UUCF is dedicated to the following mission:

  • Understanding the root causes and effects of racism.
  • Working to dismantle racism through individual and congregational actions.
  • Developing partnerships with other institutions working to dismantle racism, particularly institutions led by people of color.
  • Increasing the congregation’s diversity.

UUnite for Justice

UUCF is led in this work by UUnite for Justice, a committee formed in February 2025 by merging the former Social Justice Advisory Team and the Racial Justice Steering Committee. UUnite for Justice is the main planning team for UUCF’s social justice ministries. This team takes an intersectional approach toward understanding and taking action to alleviate social injustices such as racism, homophobia, transphobia, authoritarianism, classism, and environmental harm. This is an open committee composed of about a dozen members, including UUCF’s senior minister. The group meets on the third Monday of each month and welcomes new members committed to this mission. For questions please contact Social Justice Coordinator Andrew Batcher.
