Diversity & Social Justice Education

Join guest speakers Rabbi Ariel Naveh from Hillel, Rev. Nate Brantingham from Community United Church of Christ, and alum Muneeb Ansari, former student leader from Muslim Student Association, as they engage in an interfaith dialogue about the ways we are making sense of and taking care of of our communities in this time of social distancing. This will be a virtual event. Follow registration link to receive session login information.

It seems like wherever you look, you’ll find stories of religious strife and images of hatred and violence. It’s no wonder the narrative around religious difference is constantly about conflict. Let's come together to tell a different story. First Tuesday Interfaith Dialogue series occur monthly, and the 2019-2020 series focuses on interfaith in action.

All events are held at the University YMCA, 1001 S. Wright Street, Champaign. Parking is available in the Y lot after 5pm. All people of religious and non-religious philosophical traditions are welcome! Questions? Contact Ann Rasmus at ann@universityymca.org. First Tuesday Interfaith Partners include: Illinois Interfaith Planning Committee, Interfaith in Action, OIIR/Diversity and Social Justice Education, University Housing, University YMCA
