Potluck Brunch: Movie and Discussion on Brainwashing
Thursday, May 24, 11:00 am – 1:00 pm
Hey BUUFers, if you missed our enlightened conversation on brainwashing during May 9th’s Creative Conversations, you’ve got a second chance! Those who attend our BUUF Brunch would like an opportunity to discuss the issue of brainwashing put forth by the movie The Brainwashing of My Dad, which chronicles one person’s experience (along with the changes to laws regarding the media) to show how millions of Americans allow themselves to be brainwashed. Please join us and bring a dish to share at BUUF on Thursday, May 24, at 11 AM!

Sunday Service: “Truth-Telling in Troubling Times: What’s Your Story?”
Sunday, May 27, 10:30 am
This Sunday, May 27th is a very special Sunday at Berrien UU. Dr. April Lidinsky, Associate Professor and Director of Women’s and Gender Studies at IUSB will share her message: “Truth-Telling in Troubling Times: What’s your Story?” Dr. Lidinsky is a long-time activist and NPR contributor. In her message, she will share with us the importance of standing against the lies and fake news, of our day, by telling our own stories.
Additionally: Nan Lundeen will sit in the Poet’s Corner, Suzi Parron will talk a bit about quilting and feminism, Janice Zerfas will read some of her poetry, Eleanor Lownds will bring the Story for All Ages, and Gretchen Ohmann will have a very special musical number. This is a great Sunday to bring a friend. “Pussy” hats are optional.
