SUMMARY:Public Forum:  Proposed Gibbstown LNG Export Terminal
DESCRIPTION:A public forum on the Gibbstown Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) export terminal in Gloucester County\, NJ will be held on Monday\, October 7 in Cherry Hill\, NJ to examine and discuss the operations that are proposed\, the potential impacts to the environment\, public health and safety\, and the status of the project. Expert speakers include Fred Millar\, LNG and environmental and transportation safety expert. \nNew Fortress Energy and Delaware River Partners are proposing to add a dock with two more shipping berths to the Gibbstown terminal’s one dock already under construction\, potentially tripling the activity at the facility and requiring approximately 1\,650 truck trips every day and 24-36 ship passages of loaded LNG or natural gas liquid (NGL) vessels on the Delaware River each year. Rail transport may be added and a new access road built. The Gibbstown site is located adjacent to the residential community of Gibbstown\, including schools\, playgrounds\, and public buildings. Transport by truck and rail will require this flammable and potentially explosive cargo to be carried 125 miles or more through Pennsylvania and New Jersey communities. The highly dangerous loading of LNG directly to ships by pipes will be a continuous operation 24/7\, 365 days per year. NGL will be stored on site in an old underground cavern. The entire property is a polluted superfund site that was owned by DuPont as an explosives-manufacturing plant and by other industries that added to the pollution.

SUMMARY:Better Angels Debate on Guns in America
DESCRIPTION:Better Angels Debate on Guns in America: Tuesday\, October 29\, 2019\, 7 – 9 PM\, Summit\, NJ\n\nYou are invited to a Better Angels Debate on Guns in America to be held on Tuesday\, October 29\, 2019 from 7 – 9 PM\, hosted by Beacon UU Congregation in Summit and the Summit NJ Better Angels Alliance. \nA Better Angels Debate is a different kind of debate in which a group of people bring their views\, and think together about a difficult question. There are no winners or losers. The purpose is to express your views AND listen to others’ views. More information about Better Angels Debates\, including a video\, can be found at www.better-angels.org/debates/.\n\n\n\n\nWe use a modified parliamentary procedure\, which helps us speak respectfully and listen carefully to each other. A specific issue on the general topic of guns in America will be chosen through this registration process\, phrased in the form of a Resolution. At the debate\, participants will express their thoughts For or Against the Resolution. It is also okay\, actually encouraged\, to express doubt or nuance\, and even to change your mind. At its best\, this debate is a collective search for greater understanding about an important issue through a vigorous\, passionate airing of views\, without descending to personal attacks. \nThere are three goals here:\n– To better understand our own views\n– To better understand opposing views\n– To form stronger relationships with those around us. \nAfter the debate adjourns\, we’ll take a few minutes to share what we found surprising\, and what we enjoyed. \nWe hope you find this intriguing and will decide to contribute your thoughts to this exchange of ideas. If you do plan to attend\, complete this registration form\, including the survey (do not complete the survey if you do not plan to attend). This debate format works best with a moderate number of participants\, so attendance will be limited to 45 people\, on a first-come\, first-served basis. If you want to come\, register soon. \nThe debate also works best when the group is divided on the issue\, with half in favor of\, and half opposed to\, the resolution. The survey is intended to see which of the following Resolutions: a) interests people most; and b) splits opinion closest to 50%-50%. For each of the Resolutions we are considering\, we will ask: \n– your level of interest in discussing the resolution.\n– your position (agree\, disagree\, neutral) on the resolution. \nThe survey closes Friday\, October 18\, at midnight. \nWe’ll send an email during the week of October 20 to let you know which resolution we’ll be debating\, and ask you to confirm that you will attend. Then we will follow up with any last-minute instructions. \nIf you have any questions about this event or Better Angels\, email: betterangelsworkshop712@gmail.com.\nThank you for your interest!\n\n* Required

SUMMARY:“Value to the Soul: Voting Rights as a Human Right”      Ron Pierce\, NJ Institute for Social Justice
DESCRIPTION:Join us at 8:45 am for coffee/tea and bagels. Dialogs begin at 9 am.\nOur Dialog series provides a forum for intellectual pursuit and rational thought as integral to our spiritual journeys at UUCMC. We welcome suggestions for speakers and topics. The series runs from October through May. \nThe right to vote preserves all other rights; it protects from a tyrannical system of government. Generationally silencing communities of color with a variety of techniques has led to segregated schools\, segregated housing\, segregated neighborhoods and segregated houses of worship. If we take away peoples’ voices\, we remove their ability to be productive and they become bargaining chips as they did in the eighties and nineties as Get Tough on Crime rhetoric led to more oppressive laws with greater sanctions to gain a few extra votes\, at the expense of the human dignity of those we would not allow a voice. \nRon was incarcerated for 30 years. Through the NJ Step program\, he earned college credits\, and after parole\, received a Justice Studies degree from Rutgers. The New Jersey Institute for Social Justice employs him as the Democracy and Justice Fellow. He has a passion to help lower the recidivism rate by working to change policies that create barriers formerly incarcerated individuals encounter while trying to reenter society. He has written articles\, co-written a play\, and has spoken in many places.

SUMMARY:Accompaniment Training
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, December 02\, 2019 at 07:00 PM\nTemple Ner Tamid in Bloomfield\, NJ\n\nAccompaniment Training\n\nThe New Sanctuary Coalition (NSC) accompaniment program recruits and trains volunteers to accompany people facing deportation to their immigration hearings and ICE check-ins. This provides moral support to the person facing deportation and enables volunteers to hold immigration authorities accountable. Standing in solidarity with migrants facing deportation also demonstrates to immigration judges\, ICE officers\, and government attorneys that there is a community mobilized against their deportation. \nThe Immigration Accompaniment Program helps support families who are going through the immigration process in 3 ways: \n\nPROVIDES A SUPPORT STRUCTURE to strengthen those caught in immigration proceedings\n\n\nKEEPS FAMILY MEMBERS INFORMED at every step of the process as their loved ones move forward\n\n\nHOLDS LEGAL OFFICIALS ACCOUNTABLE for providing accurate information and serving due process\n\nIt is a concrete way to extend sanctuary for the most vulnerable among us. Sanctuary is not a physical entity but the spaces wherein all of us can breathe freely and in dignity. \nWe are building a movement that cares and protects the other\, not matter where they are from or who they are. \nHow does it work?   \nTraining consists of grounding the immigration system’s present moment in its historical and political context\, framing our work through NSC’s founding principles\, delving into the specifics of what our accompaniment work accomplishes\, and outlining strategies for allyship in light of current threats to migrant communities. \nOnce you’re trained you become part of the accompaniment program. You’ll learn about upcoming accompaniments and can sign up for time slots and locations that work for you. You’ll also leave with resources\, information and thought partnership for building a stronger network of allies in your community. \n\nYou must pre-register here.

SUMMARY:“Drivers’ Licenses for the Undocumented”      by Alejandro Jaramillo
DESCRIPTION:Currently there is a proposed state law: it would create two types of driver’s; licenses: one compliant with the federal Real ID Act\, and one strictly for driving that would be issued to immigrants without legal status\, certain senior citizens and others who lack documentation. The proposed bill would allow immigrants living in the country without legal status to acquire a state driver’s license. The data would be confidential and not shared outside the state agency. Meanwhile\, more than half a million immigrants live in fear of being deported and separated from their families for driving a car in New Jersey. \nAlvaro works with Cosecha New Jersey\, which is a state chapter of a nationwide group which advocates for immigrants’ rights.
