Appropriation”
There is a spectrum ranging from studying a culture on one end and using cultural appropriation such as commercializing ‘Day of the Dead’ symbols as another layer of decorations for Halloween. Rev. Leonetta will offer & invite you to share some examples that open up discussions of how we “affirm and promote the inherent worth of” indigenous people.

About Unitarian universalism
7 GUIDING PRINCIPLES
What do UUs Believe?
We're glad you asked! We affirm and promote seven principles which we hold as strong values. Drawn from sources as diverse as science, poetry, nature, scripture, and personal experience, these principles are our shared moral compass.
1st Principle: The inherent worth and dignity of every person;
​​
2nd Principle: Justice, equity and compassion in human relations;
​
3rd Principle: Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations;
​
4th Principle: A free and responsible search for truth and meaning;
​
​
5th Principle: The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large;
​
6th Principle: The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all;
​
7th Principle: Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.​
Liberal Values
​
Welcome to Community Unitarian Universalists in Brighton (CUUB). With a deep commitment to honoring the inherent worth and dignity of every person, we come together as a congregation of open minds, loving hearts, and helping hands. We are unified by our shared search for spiritual growth, and our historically strong commitment to social justice. Whatever your age, race, or sexual orientation, you are welcome here. We invite you to join us in our free and responsible search for truth and meaning.
​
Inspiration from Everywhere and Anywhere
We recognize the diversity of our spiritual paths and beliefs, and offer a welcoming home for modern individuals and families who may struggle with singular dogma. We are united by shared values, not by creed. We affirm and honor each individual's spiritual exploration.
​
Deeds, Not Creeds
Our legacy of "deeds not creeds" calls us to harness love's power to stop oppression and make the world a better place. Whether that means spreading kindness in our daily lives, planting a garden with our children, grassroots community organizing, or interfaith advocacy, marches, and prayer vigils, Unitarian Universalists strive to put our faith into action.
