Taking out the religious aspect of Universal Unitarianism, this is hard for me, but are there any Universalist Churches with whom have people of color?
I read about their history and our American UU presidents faught for, etc. However, even today, throughout the country (and in the church I'm attending), there are virtually no people of color. Even people from other countries is far from few. I was watching one sermon from many across the States and she was Asian American. There is a huge emphasis on Black Lives Matter that I am not familiar with growing up in an middle class environment to put it simple.
The religious and social awareness is something I lean towards especially the roll in helping those LGBTQ among other activism in thought. The god of many names is the only way I understand the nature of "god" from a life perspective and not a spirit-ual one.
However, I'm the only black person literally in the church I go to. Everyone (generalizing here on purpose) is white.
I don't know if any RFians know about the political nature of Universalist Unitarian as with other activist groups. I'm not an activist by heart, so this throws me off guard.
