Justice

[close] A space to learn and discuss eco-justice readings, with a spiritual lens. Topics include: the climate crisis, climate policy, eco-justice, reparative justice, community organizing, economic justice and more. The moderator comes from The Shalom Center, a prophetic voice in Jewish, multi-religious life. The Shalom Center seeks to build relationships with other climate activists of other faiths. We encourage reading recommendations!

[close] Book club centered on Our Lady of Peace Catholic parish in Minneapolis, Minnesota, whose reading focus will be on books oriented to Christian or Catholic living or theology as well as books exhibiting values inherent in our Christian tradition.

[close] Ethics of Care is about how we can make decisions, political, social, psychological, economic decisions, in a manner which respects life and its individual needs and joys, while honoring the interconnectedness , near and far, between humans and other entities of this Earth. Politics needs better guidelines to supplant the ill placed market values used to organise human and environmental welfare. Here we access and discuss texts formulated specifically around the #EthicsofCare, in order to develop our critical thinking skills and working vocabulary towards understanding and creating a sound debatable language of WELL BEING, not just of survival-welfare. Language and thought serve to describe how we might better organise ourselves, our politicians, policy makers and communities in a way that demonstrates Trustworthiness. Believing in the Now and the Future requires collaboration and trust. Ethics of Care also lies at the base of healing from the Past. Justice finds a welcoming home within the Ethics of Care where every person receives the care and respect needed at home, education, work and politics. Information about conferences and courses will also be posted, in the hopes that some of the group members might eventually meet one another.

[close] This is a group for those who want to read about social justice, enact change in their lives and communities, and learn from each other. Interested? Join and help us create this supportive and educational space.
