SUMMARY:“Responding to the Anti-Trans Movement” | Finale w/ Alex Kapitan
DESCRIPTION:At our General Assembly in June 2024 the UUA issued the following statement: “On behalf of the member congregations and communities of the UUA\, we proclaim that our principles and values unequivocally commit our faith to honor and celebrate the full spectrum of gender identity and expression.” \nOur faith tradition calls upon all of us to care for those most at risk.  During this time of relentless attack on the trans community\, as Unitarian Universalists we stand by  trans children\, youth and adults.  However\, in order to be effective allies\, and do no harm\, we must educate ourselves. \nWe invite all UU clergy\, staff\, members and friends to please join us for a special program\, “Responding to the Anti-Trans Movement\,” presented by UU Faith Action NJ\, our Reproductive Justice Task Force and Alex Kapitan of the Transforming Hearts Collective. \n“Responding to the Anti-Trans Movement” is a 3-part video series.  Participants are asked to watch the first two videos prior to our program.  We will then gather over Zoom on May 27\, 2025 at 7pm to watch the final video\, followed by a discussion and Q & A moderated by Alex Kapitan. \nZr. Alex Kapitan\, Facilitator\nZr. Alex Kapitan is a community minister\, educator\, consultant and anti-oppression activist. A trans and queer lifelong Unitarian Universalist\, Alex has been working for almost two decades helping people expand their understandings\, open their hearts\, and practice solidarity across lines of gender\, sexuality\, race\, class\, dis/ability\, age and more\, along with helping congregations engage in culture shift.

SUMMARY:“Responding to the Anti-Trans Movement” | Pt. 1 w/ Emily Parker
