The Sunday afternoon "Legacies of Colonial and Resistance" is currently being re-imagined. The emphasis of this open to the public, Sunday afternoon event, was to create a counter-narrative to the what was expected to be summer celebrations of the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower landing. This event was focused on centering the resistance efforts of indigenous activists, primarily in New England, and building solidarity among UU's and non-UU's in these resistance efforts.
Virtual General Assembly will continue to have workshops, featured speakers, and worship that focuses on Indigenous history, Unitarian Universalism's history, complicity with 400 years of colonialism and conquest, and will feature prominent indigenous leaders within and beyond Unitarian Universalism as originally planned.
