About The Event
At the 2015 Unitarian Universalist General Assembly, Dr. Cornell West reminded us to
“Never forget that Justice is what Love looks like in public.”
Valentine’s Day may often seem like it’s all about expensive flowers and candies, but it doesn’t have to be that way.
This year join us as we reimagine the love holiday as a day of social justice and celebration that inspires us to make the world a better place.
