SUMMARY:*Registration Required* Writing Life Stories: Trying New Approaches
DESCRIPTION:Why join a writing group? Maybe you’ve been trying to make sense of the confusing event in your past or a puzzling family member. Maybe you want to write down and self-publish family stories to share with family and friends. Maybe writing stretches your brain and you like the feeling. Our general process will be to use an idea or prompt that inspires us to write for 10 to 15 minutes\, followed by reading aloud to the group (you’ll have an option to pass). All levels of experience are welcome. Please commit to all four sessions. Facilitated by Suzanne K. \nMeets in person at the church from 10 a.m. to noon on Mondays\, January 12 and 26\, and February 9 and 23. \nAdditional details will be shared once you register here: https://forms.gle/DfGe51BeFoxf5Qcz8

SUMMARY:Justice Delayed\, Finally Gained: EDPA2 Update
DESCRIPTION:Justice Delayed\, Finally Gained: How Portland Families Displaced by Urban Renewal Won Restitution \nMs. Byrd\, the founder of Emanuel Displaced Persons Association 2 (EDPA2)\, with whom our congregation has been long connected\, returns to recap and update the efforts that led to their remarkable settlement with the City of Portland last year. Under Byrd’s determined and creative leadership\, EDPA2 persisted for many years as an ad hoc\, community-based social justice organization made up of people whose family homes and businesses had been demolished in the 1970s to make way for a hospital expansion that never happened. Byrd dedicated almost ten years of her life to advocating and agitating for justice\, for restitution. It was Byrd’s scholarship\, study\, research and persistence that led to the filing of a lawsuit that resulted in an unprecedented settlement. Don’t miss this uplifting story about a successful struggle to achieve redress that took more than 50 years. \nClick here to view the flyer.
