WHY ARE YOU YOU? started as a feature documentary that explores the history of the Young Religious Unitarian Universalists (YRUU) community where adolescents discovered their true selves and were empowered to make positive change in the world. Forty years after the program's inception, those former participants reflect on how being a part of the program shaped them and still informs their lives. YRUU, established in 1983, grew out of the Unitarian Universalists’ rich tradition of religious youth education. It was disbanded in 2008.

Now WHY ARE YOU YOU? is a documentary, a published Mugbook, a host to many community gatherings and a podcast.

The documentary-making process involves trimming a lot of content from interviews. Our aim was transparency, so every recorded interview will be aired as an episode along with new voices.


Hosted by: Lindsay Caddle LaPointe, Dawn MacKechnie and Naomi Kooker

    We are getting the full podcasts ready for season 2. The first episode drops on Sept 30th. While you all wait we thought you might like to hear this conversation between Ayanna and their partner Chris. This is just one of many YRUU couples conversations that we had the privilege of recording. Enjoy!

    We have made it to the end of season 1 of this podcast. And what better person to end on than Ayanna Kafi Lobe. We visited them at their home in Atlanta, GA with their partner Chris.

    Following the interview we had a YRUU dinner where folx came to chat, share food and there may have been a little singing.

    We also wrote affirmations on taped pieces of paper on each other's backs–a practice that the youth did during YRUU conferences.

    Interviewing Ayanna was so refreshing. They brought in the perspective of someone who really focused on their local and district youth group. A great example that having strong national youth support can trickle down to the local communities seamlessly.
