SUMMARY:Putting Our Faith Into Action: Building deeper understanding and connection with our trans+ siblings
DESCRIPTION:Bathroom bills. Title VII. #MeToo. Racial justice.  Gun Violence. Title IX.  What do these things have to do with transgender and non-binary people?  Come find out to learn more.  And… we know you want to learn (and do!) more\, because you are a UU!\nAfter a quick review of trans basics\, we’ll explore the changes in the local\, state\, and federal socio-political-cultural landscapes and how these change directly (and often adversely) impact trans/non-binary communities.\nThere are also incredibly positive shifts happening\, so stay to also learn about resilience in action. Everyone will leave with concrete steps about how to improve the lives of trans/non-binary people in these challenging and difficult times.\nThis dynamic workshop-like experience will begin directly after the 10am worship service at the Bradford Community Church UU (5810 8th Ave\, Kenosha\, WI)\, with interim minister Denise Cawley\, Rev. Erik Carlson\, and many Bradford friends who will share words\, art\, and healing prayers celebrating the gender continuum.\n  \nPresenter bio:\nmichael munson is the co-founder and Executive Director of FORGE\, an organization focused on improving the lives of transgender individuals by building stronger connections\, providing resources\, and empowering growth through knowledge.  FORGE is a national training and technical assistance provider funded in part through the Department of Justice\, Office on Violence Against Women and the Office for Victims of Crime.  Munson’s educational background is in psychology\, with an emphasis on trauma-informed care and non-traditional healing modalities.  His work on violence against trans/non-binary individuals stresses the intersectionality between complex components of identity\, experience\, and societal constructs that can both spur violence\, as well as catalyze healing for individuals and communities. He is passionate about engaging people to embrace these complexities and learn key skills to create a more whole and healthy world.

SUMMARY:February [Monthly Community Meeting] - Free CeCe! (Film)
DESCRIPTION:Much of what we celebrate during Black History Month is achievements. Given the U.S.’s long and difficult history around race\, it makes sense that many of these achievements are overcoming tremendous adversities and mounting collective resistance and resilience efforts. Both of those themes are front and center in Free CeCe!\, a film we will view together Saturday\, February 16\, 2019 (2:00pm)\, at Independence First.\nFree CeCe! features interviews between noted trans actor Laverne Cox and CeCe McDonald. In 2012\, McDonald – a bi Black trans woman – and her friends were physically assaulted\, including racist and transphobic threats and taunts. McDonald defended herself\, resulting her attacker’s death. CeCe was jailed in men’s prisons\, and community members – including Laverne Cox and dozens of advocates around the country – worked to get her hormones and eventually arrange for her early release.\nIs it a coincidence this all took place in Minneapolis\, where the first two openly trans City Council Members were elected in 2017? Come and we’ll talk about it!\nBut Do It In a New Space!\nRemember that FORGE is now meeting at Independence First. Please note that because so many of Independence First clients (like FORGE participants) have chemical sensitivities\, this will be a scent-free meeting. Please avoid using products that are scented.\nPlenty of free parking is available\, and the new site is on the Green and 15 bus lines. Join us!\n  \n\nNew Meeting Location!\nThe January 2019 FORGE meeting will not be held in our usual place. Instead\, we will be meeting at: \nIndependence First \n540 S 1st Street \nMilwaukee\, WI \nOur new location is one result of an emerging partnership with IndependenceFirst.\nPlenty of free parking is available\, and we hope the new site will be more accessible to those who bus in.\nFor the safety and comfort of those with chemical and environmental sensitivities\, IndependenceFirst requests that people refrain from using any perfumed grooming products such as scented soaps\, deodorants\, perfumes\, and heavily scented fabric softeners. It is also important that the space remain a smoke-free environment; therefore in addition to not smoking in the building\, we ask that you refrain from smoking in paths of travel and doorways.\n
