    The Asian American Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander Caucus of DRUUMM hosts a virtual Coffee Hour for community and discussion monthly (except June and December). Beginning in March 2025, the Coffee Hour will be held on the 4th Wednesday from 5 to 6:30 PM Pacific/8 to 9:30 PM Eastern.

    We have a different Theme or Topic each month. Perhaps you would like to propose and/or present one?

    In February we had a small group conversation really getting to how we share and show our love of others and ourselves. The focus on love really framed our warm heartfelt conversation.

    Our March Coffee Hour theme is Spring Awakening. We will touch on many of the topics we think of in March including honoring women's history, transgender action for healthcare equality, deaf history and gender equality. We'll also consider gardening - tending to both our exterior gardens and our interior selves. To prepare for an activity together, please bring seed/s and a pot to plant the seed/s in.

    Hosted by the AANHPI Steering Committee.

    If you have any question, please send an email to Evelie Delfino Såles at evelie511@gmail.com.

    Worship Together with:

    Rev. Phoenix Bell-Shelton Biggs

    October 12 at 10:30 AM EDT
    Updated topic:
    "Addiction, Grace, and the Long Road Home"

    Addiction is often misunderstood. It is not only about substances, but about seeking relief from pain—pain that too often festers in isolation and shame. In this sermon, Rev. Phoenix Bell-Shelton Biggs weaves together personal story, pastoral encounters, and the Parable of the Prodigal Child to explore the long road of addiction and recovery. At the heart of the story is not condemnation but grace: a God who runs to meet us with open arms, a community called to welcome before judgment, and the truth that every step toward healing is a miracle. Together, we will reflect on what it means to be a church that embodies this radical love—where the lost are found, the wounded are embraced, and no one is left to walk the road alone.

    Rev. Phoenix Bell-Shelton Biggs (they/them) is a Queer, BIPOC, non-binary minister and public theologian rooted in Unitarian Universalism. They lead with radical love, care, and sanctuary to disrupt oppression and help communities flourish in justice and joy.

    Beloved BIPOC friends and DRUUMM members too, do you want to know more about DRUUMM? Come join us for our Open House! This is a great way to learn about DRUUMM programs and events and to make connections with each other.

    Your hosts will be DRUUMM Outreach Co-Coordinators Karishma Gottfried and Devin Dadah.










    This event is BIPOC-centered, a sacred space reserved for those who identify as Black, Indigenous, or a Person of Color and UU or interested in Unitarian Universalism. DRUUMM recognizes every Community of Color is impacted differently, and each community maintains its own unique identity and culture. BIPOC/People of Color/Person of Color/Community of Color is a political identity of survival and being in resistance to racism and colonialism, one that builds solidarity and creates positive change. White allies with questions or concerns are strongly encouraged to reach out to Allies for Racial Equity.

    Aiming for Allyship: 2-Day Training is an 8-hour multiracial intersectional antiracism training occurring on October 24 and 25 at Unity Temple in Oak Park, IL.

    October 24, 6 to 9 PM
    October 25, 9 AM to 5 PM

    Continuing Education certification is available upon request to Rev. Joseph Santos-Lyons, DRUUMM Community Minister at revjoseph@druumm.org.

    This in-person program will be facilitated by Justice Movement and DRUUMM Community Minister Rev. Joseph Santos-Lyons. The training is open to all and includes opportunities for caucusing in racial groups.

    Registration closes on October 21st. Scholarships are available and reserved for DRUUMM members; please request by October 19th.

    About the Training

    This 8-hour, 2-day course is designed to deepen relationships, understanding, support, and commitment to living into our UU values.

    UU calls on us to center love and fight for social justice and equity. You’ve heard the term ally, and you want to be there for people. You don’t want to unconsciously contribute to sexism, ableism, racism, and other forms of systemic oppression in your life and community. But what to do? What to say? We’re here to help.

    Acting as an ally can be and feel complicated. We specialize in breaking down complex concepts into manageable and illuminating pieces, prioritize intimacy, and make learning to act as an ally deeply personal. Our goal is to build the confidence in our participants to address challenging topics with empathy and understanding.

    To do so, we will unpack privilege, and why it both enforces unhealthy power dynamics and limits you personally. We will also investigate the ways we are guided by UU principles towards action, plan and practice how to respond when you are called in or out, and how to do that for others. Learn in community about cancel culture, tone policing, radical love, and so much more. This course will be an opportunity to do some inner work, grow as a person, ask hard questions, and be a force for change in your congregation and beyond. Join Justice Movement founders and facilitators Natalie, Danya, and Atena as they guide you through a deep dive into allyship and accountability.

    Each session is structured to challenge, inspire, and empower participants, culminating in a roadmap for active allyship that respects and enhances the dignity of all individuals. Don't miss this chance to build your intersectional antiracism skills and continue your journey toward being an effective ally!

    Important note to White allies: We are prioritizing BIPOC attendance and may ask White registrants to yield space in this popular training to BIPOC folks on the wait list.

    Natalie Brewster Nguyen has over 20 years of experience in teaching strategies related to privilege, oppression, and structural racism, notably in Unitarian Universalism contexts. They began their anti-racism journey with Groundworks and The People's Institute, focusing on institutional accountability and capacity building within organizations. Natalie’s background in gender studies and sociology, combined with their personal experiences as a queer POC and sex worker, enrich their comprehensive anti-racism trainings. They co-own and are the Executive Director of an historic art studio warehouse called Splinter Collective in Tucson. Splinter Collective is a space for artists and a 501c3 non-profit focused on amplifying marginalized artists, housing justice, and community building.

    Danya (Xena) Davis, with two decades in social change and adult education and degrees in economics and international development, has worked extensively in South Africa, developing educational programs on race and social justice. She has a long practice of integrating social justice into her innovative acrobatics teaching that emphasizes inclusivity and power dynamics. Her experience includes working on large scale discussions about race at the University of Cape Town and leading the Acro and Social Justice Teacher Training.

    Atena Danner is an educator, a writer, and a critical thinker who uses creativity to facilitate connection, curiosity and discovery in joyful learning environments. Her years of experience as an adult learning facilitator and cultural worker culminate in an anti-racist approach that warmly challenges learners to expect rigor, care, and just practices. Committed to authenticity and justice, Atena designs engaging experiences for learners who want more for themselves, their networks, and their communities.

    Hello bookworms!

    We had an fascinating discussion in September for our DRUUMM NonFiction Book Club Group!

    In it we discussed Part II of Empire of AI: Dreams and Nightmares in Sam Altman's OpenAI by Karen Hao. Our discussion emphasized the present and future surrounding AI, which led to a marvelous discussion about our September readings.

    For October, we will be reading Part III which is pages 227 to 343 if you are using the Hardcover Edition. Our next discussion is set for Sunday, October 26th.

    All DRUUMM Book Club groups are for members of DRUUMM only. If you would like to invite a friend to join the book discussion, make sure they are registered with DRUUMM. Send a message to devin@druumm.org if you ever need to contact the leader of this book group.

    EmpireOfAI-Karen Hao.jpg

    "Armed with Microsoft’s billions, OpenAI is setting a breakneck pace, chased by a small group of the most valuable companies in human history—toward what end, not even they can define. All this time, Hao has maintained her deep sourcing within the company and the industry, and so she was in intimate contact with the story that shocked the entire tech industry—Altman’s sudden firing and triumphant return. The behind-the-scenes story of what happened, told here in full for the first time, is revelatory of who the people controlling this technology really are. But this isn’t just the story of a single company, however fascinating it is. The g forces pressing down on the people of OpenAI are deforming the judgment of everyone else too—as such forces do. Naked power finds the ideology to cloak itself; no one thinks they’re the bad guy. But in the meantime, as Hao shows through intrepid reporting on the ground around the world, the enormous wheels of extraction grind on. By drawing on the viewpoints of Silicon Valley engineers, Kenyan data laborers, and Chilean water activists, Hao presents the fullest picture of AI and its impact we’ve seen to date, alongside a trenchant analysis of where things are headed. An astonishing eyewitness view from both up in the command capsule of the new economy and down where the real suffering happens, Empire of AI pierces the veil of the industry defining our era."

    We hope you can join us for what will be a pertinent discussion!

    We are deeply honored to present Rev. Dr. Bill Sinkford as he shares his Elder Spiritual Odyssey, a special event for DRUUMM Members, BIPOC friends, and White allies. This gathering is more than a storytelling session; it is a sacred space created to uplift the journeys of our elders who have shaped and strengthened Unitarian Universalism through their wisdom, activism, and leadership.

    This Elder Spiritual Odyssey aligns with DRUUMM's vision of building a multigenerational, multicultural community where we honor and learn from the experiences of those who have paved the way. The purpose of this gathering is to deepen our connections, recognize the spiritual discipline of reconciliation, and inspire future leaders by connecting the struggles of the past with the hopes for tomorrow. As Bill reflects on his life’s work, participants will have the opportunity to engage in meaningful dialogue, drawing lessons and inspiration that resonate with their own journeys. This event is now open to all.


    In this intimate setting, we embody DRUUMM’s value of being conscious of history—preserving and sharing the lived stories of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color in Unitarian Universalism. Together, we will form a circle to hold and honor these stories, building a bridge between generations and cultivating a deeper collective identity. This event is an invitation to reflect on the shared spirit of resilience, community, and justice that defines our work and purpose.

    We invite you to join us for this powerful evening and become a part of the ongoing story of liberation and transformation.

    About Our Honored Elder Rev. Dr. Bill Sinkford

    Rev. Dr. William “Bill” Sinkford is a lifelong Unitarian Universalist, a founding leader of DRUUMM, a member of the African American UU Ministries, and the first African American to serve as President of the Unitarian Universalist Association (2001–2009). In 2010 Bill was called as Senior Minister of First Unitarian Church of Portland, where he was named Minister Emeritus in 2022. In 2017 Bill was called back to the UUA as one of three Interim Co-Presidents at a time of denominational crisis. Failing at retirement, Transitional Ministry at All Souls Unitarian in DC and sabbaticfal ministries at several congregations have kept him involved in the work of our faith. Throughout his decades of ministry, Rev. Sinkford has been a prophetic voice for racial justice, inclusive language, and spiritual renewal. He has guided the UUA and congregations through moments of crisis and transformation, helping nurture a deeper vocabulary of reverence and covenant. A gifted pastor, leader, and mentor, he continues to inspire and guide new generations of Unitarian Universalists.

    As BIPOC Unitarian Universalists, our faith teaches us that liberation unfolds not only in the struggles of the present but in the sacred rhythms of our lives. We are the inheritors of ancestors who carried fire through the night, who held on to wisdom through exile and oppression, who nurtured love in places where the world tried to deny it.

    In each stage of life—youth, adulthood, caregiving, oldering/eldering, and the tender crossroads in between—we embody a fragment of the divine story of becoming. Our lives testify that liberation is not a destination but a lifelong practice, shaped by resilience, creativity, and interdependence. Together, we gather to honor these stages, to weave them into a shared vision where every age and every body of color belongs to the circle of collective freedom.

    This year’s Fall DRUUMM Caucus invites us to reflect, honor, and connect across these stages—building a movement where every age and every season of life is cherished as part of the liberatory whole. Moderated by Karishma Gottfried, Karin Lin and Linda Russell. Chaplain by Rev. Leslie Takahashi.

    What to Expect

    You can expect a rich and interactive gathering: we will open with music, ritual, and centering words, then hear short testimonies from BIPOC UUs across different life stages. Participants will join small breakout circles—choosing the group that resonates most, from Youthful Fire to Eldering & Wisdom, Parenting & Caregiving, or Crossroads & Transitions—where we’ll reflect on what sustains us and the wisdom we share. Together we’ll return for a collective harvest and ritual of blessing across generations, closing with reflection, music, and an invitation to continue building intergenerational DRUUMM spaces.

    Why This Matters

    This caucus grows out of our recent community survey, where members expressed longing for connection across identities and life stages, a deeper grounding in UU history and practices, and less isolation in our journeys. We are seeking to live more fully into our UU identity—defined not only by what we left behind but by the liberatory faith which we are instrumental in creating.

    Whether you come with the fire of youth, the sustaining love of caregiving, the resilience of elderhood, or the searching questions of transition—you are welcome here. Your story belongs in this circle.

    This event is BIPOC-centered, a sacred space reserved for those who identify as Black, Indigenous, or a Person of Color and UU or interested in Unitarian Universalism. DRUUMM recognizes every Community of Color is impacted differently, and each community maintains its own unique identity and culture. BIPOC/People of Color/Person of Color/Community of Color is a political identity of survival and being in resistance to racism and colonialism, one that builds solidarity and creates positive change. White allies with questions or concerns are strongly encouraged to reach out to Allies for Racial Equity.
