More news coverage of the 2008 General Assembly

posted by Christopher L. Walton

The Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel focused on youth anti-racism workshops at the 2008 General Assembly, but mistakenly described the 3,000 GA-goers as "clergy"—including the teenagers interviewed for the piece. ("3,000 Unitarian Universalists gather for national assembly," 6.29.08.)

The Religion News Service focuses on resolutions passed by the General Assembly in support of gay marriage and immigrant rights. ("Unitarians oppose anti-gay marriage ballot measures," Religion News: The Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life, 7.1.08.)
