November 8: After the Ballots: What Kind of World Shall We Build?

Rev. Gordon Bailey

Elections come and go, but the work of building a just and compassionate society remains. Whatever this election brings, our neighbors still need food, shelter, safety, opportunity, and belonging. Our children deserve a livable planet, our elders deserve dignity, and every person deserves freedom of conscience. Drawing upon our Unitarian Universalist values and the rich history of community organizing in New Orleans, we consider how gratitude for the gifts of democracy becomes responsibility for one another. The question is not simply what happened on Election Day, but what we will do together in the days ahead.
