- an update from the Greensboro Truth and Reconciliation Commission-
No. 10 - April 26, 2005
UBUNTU - "I am what I am because of who we all are." For a more complete definition, visit Wikipedia

Greetings,

This week we're grateful to Cornel West, who took the time during his visit Friday to offer encouragement, inspiration and ideas for this process, and to attorney Claire Harwell and forensic psychologist Dave Lysak for their presentation to commissioners and members of our research team on dealing with trauma.
  • In our ongoing work of engaging the community, we're reaching out to faith congregations of all types. We're interested in speaking with and launching discussions in all churches, temples, mosques or other faith gatherings open to the idea. Is yours open? If so, let us know who to contact and we'll do it.
  • Community engagement also means winning over city leaders who have yet to buy into our belief that this work ultimately will be healing. We've contacted all City Council members and hope to persuade each one to make statements, which remain the current focus of our work.
  • This week's progress indicator: More than 350 people are receiving Ubuntu Weekly.
Upcoming:
  • Friday-Saturday, May 20-21, first GTRC Public Hearing, Triad Stage, 232 S. Elm St.
  • Thursday, Nov. 3, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, 8 p.m., War Memorial Auditorium, part of Guilford College's Bryan Series on "Spirit and Spirituality."
