Ending Silence: Becoming an Active Bystander

In our UU principles, we covenant to affirm and promote the inherent worth and dignity of every person.  Yet, when we are in a conversation and we hear a comment that harms another, we aren’t always sure how to react, how to help the harmed person, and how to prevent further harm.  In this service, presented by the Social Justice Action Committee, we’ll explore practical ways to help us move with courage and compassion from passive witness to an active bystander, and truly express that we are a welcoming congregation to all.
