The Covid-19 pandemic and threats to democracy that reached a fever pitch at the January 6th, 2021 insurrection have made it clear that our systems are not designed for communities to thrive.   The threat of white supremacy and extractive capitalism are root causes of multiple and intersecting crises. Voter suppression, anti-protest bills, police violence, criminalization, and corporate influence are wreaking havoc on BIPOC communities. 

Our faith calls us to act in solidarity, understanding that interdependence means “None of us are free until all of us are free.” Our lives and future are bound together, and together is how we move forward toward living out our faith in a just and loving world.

This is why we need YOU to help us launch the Side With Love Action Center: a place for folks to come together across differences, issues, and geography  to end oppression and build democratic, sustainable, and thriving communities focused on our four key issues:

• Climate Justice
• Decriminalization
• Democracy & Voting Rights
• LGBTQ+ & Gender Justice

Come launch with us, 9/12 @ 2pm ET / 11am PT!

(yes, this event will be recorded if you cannot make it live - sign up to get it!)

The powerful, Indigenous-led movement to #StopLine3 in Minnesota is a direct descendant of the movement that grew out of Standing Rock. What does it mean for UUs to act in solidarity with Water Protectors not just in "movement moments," but for the long haul? Join Side With Love for this conversation with Michael "Rattler" Markus, one of the #NoDAPL political prisoners who was incarcerated on federal charges at Standing Rock, and Rev. Karen Van Fossan, a member of support committees for #NoDAPL political prisoners. We will trace the organizing legacy of the Water Protector movement, talk about the terrifying consequences of criminalizing protest, and take action to support Water Protectors who have made this movement possible.

Join us for a virtual gathering of intercultural, interfaith sharing of experience and knowledge for the profound social, cultural, economic, legal and environmental issues reflecting the impacts to the health and well-being of our collective Nations and our Planet.

The urgent questions and growing social, cultural, and environmental inequities facing these times create the need for collective strategies. No single individual, organization, or Nation can or should bear the emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual costs or responsibility for finding solutions to the overwhelming
challenges facing us today. We must all learn how to work together for our collective survival, that of the earth, and for all our relatives.

We invite you to join us individually or create your own in-person gathering and join us virtually as we gather at Paha Sapa (“Black Hills”)
