“I think of the Y as a rare ‘brave space’ in our local and campus communities. It's a beacon and a rallying place for those committed to building relationships across difference and challenging systemic injustice. From learning about other religious traditions, to holding hard conversations about how racism and white supremacy affect our community, to making our community a safer place for the most vulnerable among us, it seems like all roads in C-U lead back to the Y as a trusted leader and thoughtful guide. This long-cultivated trust brings together thinkers and activists, students and community members, leaders and learners, and people of all faiths who yearn for a world with more justice and more peace.”
