I'm a 20-year UU who somehow only just recently became fairly well aware of the extent of the crises that have disrupted our denomination since the time of Rev Morales's unfortunate departure. I'm some ways I was quite close to that original schism, but I and many of my closest UU friends seem to have stopped paying close attention to denominational affairs, probably somewhat unconsciously.
I am truly grateful for this piece and the way you brought evidence to the fore while also very effectively outlining a lot of paradoxical tensions. Thank you so much.
I was an Indian-American UU for two decades. I left for good in 2020 for all the reasons you describe and then some.

Great analysis and basically positive but realistic attitude.
