MCU St. Louis

Video from Metropolitan Congregations United, a community organization that brings together religious congregations, community groups, and individuals to work for a common purpose: to create a better life for all residents.  The Ferguson experience continues to crystallize for us the center of our work: the intersection of race, economy, political power, gender and the structures of oppression at work within us individually, within our organizations and within the community of the St. Louis region.

As an affiliate of the Gamaliel Network, we have joined our partners around the country to work towards four structural shifts.

Build people’s control of government
Build community control of the economy
Expand the public sphere (for example, public transportation)
Create structural racial equity
