A New View Film Series: Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Butler University
YOUNG PLATO charts the dream of Elvis-loving school headmaster Kevin McArevey – a maverick who is determined to change the fortunes of an inner-city community plagued by urban decay, sectarian aggression, poverty and drugs. The all-boys primary school in post-conflict Belfast, Northern Ireland, becomes a hothouse for thinking and questioning, as the headmaster encourages the children to see beyond the boundaries and limitations of their community, and sends his young wards home each day armed with the wisdom of the ancient Greek philosophers. The boys challenge their school-friends, parents and neighbors to find alternatives to violence and prejudice, and to challenge the mythologies of war: modeling peace and reconciliation building strategies.

A New View Film Series: Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Butler University
BROTHER OUTSIDER chronicles the life and work of Bayard Rustin — a visionary strategist and activist who has been called “the unknown hero” of the civil rights movement. A disciple of Gandhi, a mentor to Martin Luther King Jr., and the architect of the 1963 March on Washington, Rustin dared to live as an out gay man during the fiercely homophobic 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. BROTHER OUTSIDER chronicles Rustin’s activism for racial and economic justice, peace, and equality for LGBTQ Americans while illuminating why he has been erased from history. Please join us for this in-person
Special Event post film conversation with Bennett Singer, co-director and Walter Naegle, Bayard Rustin’s Life Partner.

All Meeting Cookie Exchange
This will take place IMMEDIATELY after worship in the kitchen. Please bring three dozen cookies. If you have copies of your recipe to share, that would be fine, but not required. Bring a separate receptacle to collect your cookies. This is a great way to get a variety of Christmas cookies for the holidays. You can always freeze them for later events.
