I left off blogging after the death of my late spouse and partner Marjorie Bowens-Wheatley, the old blog had come out my life with Marjorie and my ministry in Florida.
While I discussed my transition to Pasadena in the previous blog, after Marjorie passed away, I wasn't ready to think about a new direction and emphasis for my weblog. I am now.
The new People So Bold! will continue to reflect a Unitarian Universalist ministers voice and his search for a theology of liberation. People So Bold! will continue to comment on the Unitarian Universalist movement, but now with special emphasize on the people of color community within Unitarian Universalism and the soul work of anti racism.
But there will be a significant change, the new People So Bold! will now have as its mission to support and give voice to the struggle overcome the legacy of the conquest of North America by a racist, violent, patriarchal and imperious culture. Its point of view will be that of a Native American Indian who grew up within Unitarian Universalism and knows it well, but is acutely aware of that this, the faith tradition of my lifetime grew out of, continues to reflect, and perpetuates the system of domination that People So Bold! seeks to overcome.
