New From Skinner House
The recent history of the UUA journey toward becoming an anti-racist, anti-oppressive, multicultural movement.
"Takahashi-Morris, Spencer and Roush have written an essential book, a brave and compelling account of the history that we must ponder and understand as we continue our work for racial justice, healing, and reconciliation. They invite us to acknowledge the multiple perspectives shaping our complex struggles over racial justice and enable us to understand the different views of how to best work to end racism and build justice. This is a very human story of how we live together, and try to find together our best selves, selves that are accountable for exploitation and denial, selves that work together for the flourishing of all. Arc of the Universe is truly a gift to us all, a labor of integrity and love." - Sharon Welch, provost, Meadville Lombard Theological School

Dear Friends,
Wow. That was fantastic. Thank you all for making General Assembly such an amazing event.
We're always interested to see how our new books do. This year, they all did great. But The Arc of the Universe is Long (see left) blew us away. We sold all the copies we brought with us!
I think the reason it surprised us to sell so many was that it's Skinner House's largest, heaviest book ever. The kind of book that makes your luggage too heavy. But, of course, and as always, you all recognized what an important book this is, a monument to years of hard work and reconciliation. Thank you for that.
Sincerely,
Rose Hanig
Bookstore Manager
