Race and Climate Justice Action

,
MZMC’s Racial Justice Action (RCJA) provides organized activities to support work for race and climate justice outside the walls of MZMC. RCJA is focused on partnering with community groups and following the leadership of people of color to honor our vows to practice for the well-being of all. These events often arise quickly and are not posted to this page. Subscribe to MZMC emails to receive regular updates on RCJA activities.

​Cutting Through the Noise, August 2026
with Rev. Dr. Jia Starr Brown and Rev. Ben Connelly
Sunday August 8 - 29, 11 am - noon 
George Floyd Square, 38th and Chicago

In a world rife with systemic injustice, “cutting through the noise” has never been more critical. Let us come together with a commitment to justice to embody peace and bear witness in shared public places. With a hope for deepening wellness, we will practice “retreat” in real time and space…right where we are!  

​Attendees will be invited to reflect, pray, or simply rest in the sights, sounds, and feelings of the present moment. Facilitators will provide brief instructions for finding mindful quiet. 

To support this offering, we suggest a donation of $10. No one will be turned away.
