Paradigm Shift

The concept of a Paradigm Shift came into use in the 1960s  and greatly  influenced Lucile and others. This page includes two pieces which present the main aspects of this Shift. One is a essay written by me, Elizabeth Fisher, and the other is a speech on Feminist Values by Bill Schulz, president of the UUA from 1985-93.

 

My essay is published in the Rise Up & Call Her Name Sourcebook.  This Sourcebook provided addition resources to support and expand issues explored in the sessions.
