In the past two years in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic we have witnessed some of the greatest threats to democracy in living memory both nationally and globally as authoritarianism and despotism steadily flourish worldwide. How can we as Unitarian Universalists hope to act upon our fifth and sixth principles of using the democratic process to achieve peace, liberty, and justice in the world community when fact and truth are subjectively conditional to tribalism in the name of nationality? Join us as we confront this threat and explore the spiritual impetus of being a responsible and upstanding citizen to create a greater world for us all.
