Recognizing and Resisting Fascism as People of Faith

December 12, 2023 @ 8:00 pm 9:30 pm

Zoom Presentation Register Here:
Rev. Cecilia Kingman has been studying authoritarian systems for most of her life and is currently doing doctoral work at the Pacific School of Religion on the responses of faith communities to fascist and totalitarian regimes. After the collapse of the communist dictatorship in Romania, she spent two decades working with the Unitarians of Transylvania to strengthen civil society and support sustainable agricultural and community development.

Please join UUs for Social Justice on December 12 at 8:00 PM ET, when Rev. Kingman will share her thoughts on how to recognize the less well-known characteristics of rising fascism, as well as her conviction that our faith as Unitarian Universalists compels us to resist it in all its forms. Several of us from UUCC have already attended a presentation of hers and it was excellent.
