The Surprising Malcolm X

May 18 @ 4:00 pm 6:30 pm

UUCC will show the PBS documentary, “Malcolm X: Make It Plain” and serve as host to several other area congregations who are actively engaged in promoting anti-racist perspectives and practices. One of the most pivotal figures of our time, while Malcolm X articulated the global struggle against racism with profound clarity, he was also, surprisingly to many, the soul and vision of fundamental human rights. Transcending the conversation beyond civil rights, he promoted and demanded the recognition of our common humanity and the inherent worthiness and dignity of everyone, both locally and globally.

Come, be surprised, and engage with others who are doing their part to create more just and caring communities within their congregations and in society at large. There will be a brief intermission (with light refreshments) followed by a half hour of table discussion ending by 6:30.

Doors open at 3:30.  The FILM STARTS PROMPTLY AT 4:00.    Pre- registration is highly recommended at [email protected]

Sponsored by: Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Cleveland; Community Church of Chesterland; Social Justice Ministry of Federated Church, Chagrin Falls; and Racial Equity Buddies
