Bill's BlogOpportunity vs Equality
Opportunity rather than equality has shaped the American vision of Beloved Community, at least the dominant vision. Equality as a goal, in fact, has been broadly embraced only as equality of opportunity.
The conversation about reparations, which I introduced again in my sermon last Sunday, calls for a more honest understanding of the impact of trauma and oppression. That understanding raises real questions about the adequacy of opportunity as a singular standard and a goal.
Based on my inbox, looking at the way trauma is passed down provided a lens that resonated deeply for many of us. One way that lens operates for me is to place equality of outcome on at least an equal footing with equality of opportunity ...Continued

Why Pronouns MatterAt church and elsewhere, it’s becoming more common for people to introduce themselves with the pronouns they use, and to ask, “What pronouns do you use?” Though this may be an unfamiliar question for you, becoming comfortable with it is a way to live our UU principles. Here’s why: Gender is a primary way our creative identities interact with the world. Many people feel comfortable with the gender assigned to them at birth based on their genitals, assigned male or female, and are called cisgender. (Cis means “on the same side of,” so for these people, gender and sex-at-birth align.) For many others, their assigned gender is not a true or comfortable identity. Read more here.

Women's Justice edition of Speaking of Justice: Faith in Action E-Mag!
| |
In honor of International Women's Day and Women's History Month, this edition of Speaking of Justice focuses on Women's Justice. You can find it here. In this edition, you'll find a welcome letter that acknowledges that women's justice is a matter of gender justice, yet it does not address all aspects of gender oppression that exist in the system of patriarchy in which we all function. As we focus on women’s justice specifically, we recognize the unique, and yet unifying, impacts patriarchy has on womxn around the world. The liberation of womxn is essential to the liberation of all people. In this issue, you'll find an article about gender pronouns, and why they matter. You'll delve into the history of women and justice work at First Unitarian Portland, get a glimpse of the thought and work that went into creating the “I Believe You” service and pastoral care; read poetry, prayers and testimony of Unitarian Universalists; and hear from our social justice action groups about how the injustices they address particularly and disproportionately impact women. Thank you for joining us on this journey for justice together.

EJAG: Gathering 200,000 SignaturesFirst, Third and Fourth Sundays after each service during coffee hour. The Economic Justice Action Group (EJAG) is gathering signatures for Initiative 1, a constitutional amendment to the Oregon Constitution to permit regulation of campaign financing. Oregon has voted for this type of regulation in the past, but the Oregon Supreme Court has blocked implementation of these measures based on language in the Oregon Constitution. This initiative has survived legal challenges, fixes the constitutional problem, and is now ready for your participation!
You may have seen the recent Oregonian article, Polluted by Money, on the power of corporate money in the action of our Oregon legislature. It is time to implement some controls! We will be gathering 200,000 signatures between now and June 2020. Help us get off to a good start by stopping by our table during coffee hour.
If you are interested in helping us gather signatures, stop by and we will hook you up.

In the CommunityCommunity milestones, joys, and sorrows Evelyn Knights, mother of member Linda Towers, died of natural causes on March 18 at the age of 93. Linda and her sisters were grateful to be able to be with her during this passage. Member Jon Gjestvang has entered hospice care with the news that cancer has metastasized to his lungs. He has just finished a round of radiation treatments that have relieved a great deal of his pain. Jon has been living with an earlier Alzheimer diagnosis, and he and his wife Ingrid note that this cancer diagnosis may be a more benign end of life, but it is difficult to realize that it may be sooner than they thought. Jon appreciates our thoughts and emails. Member Ann Pickar is recovering from injuries she sustained while hiking in the Gorge. She had hip replacement surgery and is now recovering in a rehabilitation facility. She hopes to be back home soon. Members Eleanor and Bill Kirkham are both back at home recovering after brief hospitalizations. They appreciate our prayers as well as cards.
