*********************
About the “We Shall Be Known” video: Unitarian Universalists from across the country joined the UU the Vote "How We Thrive" virtual choir to sing the MaMuse song, “We Shall Be Known.” The chorus for the song was the inspiration for an inspiring UU the Vote Live event, “How We Thrive,” which featured powerful words from special guests Paige Ingram from Black Lives of Unitarian Universalism; Analise Ortiz from ACLU of AZ; and Desmond Meade from the Florida Rights Restoration Coalition. There were also some healing and spiritual balms from our president, Rev. Susan Frederick-Gray, and Organizing Strategy Director, Rev. Ashley Horan.

*********************
Opening words
Excerpts from the 13th, 14th, 15th, and 19th amendments

15th: The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.

Chalice Lighting
“Looking Inward, Seeing Outward” by Reginald Ray.

It is undeniable that others, and the larger world, so beleaguered at this moment in history, need everything that we have to give. But what to give is the problem. We cannot find out what to do simply by thinking about it. We need to gain our inspiration and our direction from much deeper sources.
Toolbox of Faith--Remembering
With Kat Good, Marion Hirsch, and Jenny Nelson
