United Methodists Stand Against Racism
- We recognize racism as a sin.
- We commit to challenging unjust systems of power and access.
- We will work for equal and equitable opportunities in employment and promotion, education and training; in voting, access to public accommodations, and housing; to credit, loans, venture capital, and insurance; to positions of leadership and power in all elements of our life together; and to full participation in the Church and society.
