Two Great UCC Webinars

Mark Charles Assesses the Biden Administration from an Indigenous Christian Perspective

The environmental movement has widely lauded the actions taken by the Biden administration in addressing the climate crisis through early appointments and executive orders. Yet, there is a larger context to consider as indigenous leaders continue fights against pipelines and Syria is bombed. In this webinar, Mark Charles will provide an indigenous Christian perspective on the presidency. Charles is the co-author of the book, “Unsettling Truths: The Ongoing, Dehumanizing Legacy of the Doctrine of Discovery.” In 2020, as an independent candidate, Charles made a historic run for the presidency as a dual citizen of the United States and the Navajo Nation. Register now for this webinar on Wednesday, March 11 at 1 pm ET. Even if you can’t make it, still sign-up, and you will be sent a recording afterward.

UCC Digital Advocacy Gathering to Oppose Line 3

As part of GreenFaith’s international day of action on March 11 entitled “Sacred People, Sacred Earth,” a digital advocacy gathering is being organized by the Rev. Roberta Rominger of the UCC. The gathering is an opportunity for people of the Christian faith from across the country to oppose the expansion of the Line 3 tar sands pipeline. The gathering will begin with a moment to center ourselves in our faith and to hear the latest updates on the indigenous-led struggle to oppose the pipeline. Those present will then partake in actions while enjoying fellowship with each other. Join the gathering via Zoom at 1 pm ET on March 11th by signing up now.
