UU World
: Kimberly French profiles poet Kathleen Sheeder Bonanno, a UU, whose new book chronicles her passage through grief after her daughter's murder. "For a long time, I could barely read a book," Bonanno tells her. "But for me to write any book, I had to write this book first. It was the mountain that stood in the way of t...he mountain." http://www.uuworld.org/life/articles/151 718.shtml?f

UU World
: Meg Barnhouse writes, "I have a suggestion. Let's stick something onto the end of every Principle that will stop people from smiling and nodding comfortably as they are read. Instead of adding 'in the bathtub' or 'between the sheets,' how about attaching 'beginning in our homes and congregations'?
Then we'd be faced w...ith affirming things like 'the goal of . . . peace, liberty, and justice for all, beginning in our homes and congregations.'"

UU World : Don Skinner reports that ten-year-old Will Phillips, whose family attends the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Fayetteville, Ark., refused to stand up for the Pledge of Allegiance in his fifth-grade classroom. Will explains: "At the end of the Pledge it says 'liberty and justice for all.' But there isn't justice ...for people who are gay. And there's a lot of racism and sexism still, and there are lots of people who can't get health care."
