Reporters Roundtable: Protests, Speeches, Anniversaries and Partnerships

In this inaugural episode of UCC News’ Reporters Roundtable, the reporters behind the headlines go in-depth on the stories that matter most to the United Church of Christ. This week, we dive into recent protests in Cleveland in response to ICE occupations across the country, discuss how a fourth grader gave a speech on his experience when ICE visited his school, share how Global Ministries is celebrating 30 years, and talk about how the UCC is partnering with Values in Action for its 250 Days of Kindness initiative.

We invite you to watch, comment, and send us any story ideas you may have. Email us at newsteam@ucc.org.
