Grassroots Community Activism & Working for Justice from our Faith

How a group of grassroots activists that started meeting around the dining room table in 2017 grew to a community of 1,200 activists.  Each week we do our best to turn hopes and heartbreaks into action.  We welcome people to gather, learn and then reach out to our elected representatives. In-Person: In Max Otto Hall.

For over 50 years, the Sunday Forum lecture series has showcased provocative, sometimes controversial, speakers discussing topical issues of the day: politics, the environment, health issues, the arts, education, and more. The Sunday Forum is held at 10:00 a.m. September through May. Speakers give a 45-minute presentation, followed by questions and brief comments from the audience. The content of Forum lectures does not necessarily express the viewpoint of First Unitarian Society of Milwaukee, but are meant to offer thoughtful topics which our members often pursue further on their own.
