June 30,at 10 am, 3845 North Swan Street "UU the Vote for LBGTQ+ Equity"

The Welcoming Congregation team will discuss the Unitarian Universalist Association's (UUA) nonpartisan "UU the Vote" civic engagement initiative, and how people can get involved in promoting democracy around issues affecting the LGBTQIA+ community.

UU the Vote promotes the values of interdependence, equity, democracy, and the inherent worth and dignity of all people as direct antidotes to the fear, bigotry, and inequity that define our world. With the rise of authoritarianism and governmental attacks on and oppression of the queer and trans community in many states, it is critical that we work to advance democracy and organize for justice, accountability, and legal protections for LGBTQIA+ people.

Dr. Richardson, who guided Silver City Museum Curator Javier Marrufo as he developed the popular Chihuahua Hill History Project, will lead a discussion on the value, techniques, and challenges of creating an accurate and representative collection of oral histories, and will offer his perspective on how this important, local oral history project was designed and brought to life.

In this role, he oversees the center's cultural traditions survey and heritage arts apprenticeship program, and serves as a resource for folk and traditional arts research, documentation and programming.
