UUC's Acting for Racial Justice and Climate Action Teams are sponsoring a talk/fundraiser on indigenous voices and the upcoming United Nations 28th Conference of the Parties climate change conference (COP 28) this November in Dubai.

The talk at UUC will be given by Jacob Johns (Akimel O’odham and Hopi tribes) who is a Community Supported Organizer with the Backbone Campaign and a Unitarian Universalist based in Spokane, WA. He is helping coordinate a delegation of 15 indigenous activist and wisdom keepers hailing from diverse bio-regions of the world. This delegation will bring a proposal of collective indigenous wisdom to address climate change and chart a sustainable path forward to this fall's UN COP 28.

We hope you can join us in the UUC chapel on Sunday, October 15. 

For more information on supporting this delegation see the Backbone Campaign's website.
