Compassion and empathy both refer to a caring response to someone else’s distress. While empathy refers to an active sharing in the emotional experience of the other person, compassion adds to that emotional experience a desire to alleviate the person’s distress.

What actions will YOU take to alleviate someone's distress this month? Comment with ideas for how to put our compassion to work.

The UUA is an official partner of the No Kings National Day of Mobilization on Saturday, October 18. Building on the momentum from the first No Kings protests in June, we are mobilizing for another mass day of resistance, resilience, and action.

Because our communities deserve more than fear, silence, and billion-dollar bailouts for the powerful.

We deserve safety.

We deserve dignity.

We deserve to be heard.

On this Transgender Day of Remembrance, we mourn the lives that have been lost. Let's recommit ourselves to uplifting, protecting, and honoring the beauty of living life as your true self. And we hold in our hearts all those suffering a loss and all those feeling unsafe today.
