Just Us Reading - Young Adult Justice Book Group

Her book asks the timely question – how can we create a new economic system that works for businesses, families and the planet? Join us for our Justice Action inspired by the book ... a screening of the sex trafficking documentary DEMAND. ![]() DEMAND. Movie Screening Thursday, July 9, 2009 |

Winter 2007 Justice Action—Finding Common Ground In a marketplace of ideas the groups strove to evade debate and seek common ground on several issues. The group dialogue focused the most attention on the environment. A wide political spectrum was represented from “big government” to “hands off government.” We exchanged teachings and traditions from our religious backgrounds and all agreed some regulation/intervention is necessary to help our country and the rest of the world be good stewards of the Earth. As our conversation progressed we overcame some stereotypes and built a foundation of common ground that will nurture current grassroots efforts and future interactions. |
