SUMMARY:Healing the Divide
DESCRIPTION:Healing the Divide  \nHealing the Divide -- Sunday September 5\
 , 1:00 to 2:30 on Zoom\n\nHealing the Divide is a UUCPA group which formed
  after the 2016 elections to ask 1) what do we not understand about others
  with more conservative viewpoints and 2)  what can we learn that will he
 lp us communicate even across wide differences in belief.\nAs we return fr
 om our summer break\, our topic for the next three months will be the book
  by Valarie Kaur entitled See No Stranger: A Memoir and Manifesto of Revo
 lutionary Love.  Conveniently\, the book is divided into three major sect
 ions:\nPart 1: See No Stranger: Loving Others  (September)\nPart 2: Tend 
 the Wound: Loving Opponents  (October)\nPart 3: Breathe and Push: Loving 
 Ourselves  (November)\nThe “love” that Kaur advocates is not romantic
  love or selfless Christian love (Kaur is a Sikh\, and is not a pacifist).
   Instead\, she speaks of revolutionary love – the choice to enter in
 to wonder and labor for others\, for our opponents\, and for ourselves.\n\
 nUnfortunately\, the Santa Clara Library system appears to have only one c
 opy of the book available. The book can be ordered through Amazon or your 
 favorite book store\, though you might want to pre-order the paperback edi
 tion that will become available on Sept. 7. You can prepare for our first 
 meeting by watching her TED talk:\n\nhttps://www.ted.com/talks/valarie_kau
 r_3_lessons_of_revolutionary_love_in_a_time_of_rage\n\nAlthough that 20-mi
 nute video necessarily compresses her message\,  it is an exceptionally g
 ood introduction to her approach to healing the divide.\n\n\nZoom informat
 ion will be provided on heal-the-divide@uucpa.org a day or two before the 
 meeting.  If you are not a member of that email list\, you can request to
  join by sending a message to heal-the-divide+subscribe@uucpa.org.\nHope t
 o see you there!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
