UU Annual General Assembly getting underway in Phoenix.

Opening ceremonies are tonight at the Phoenix Convention Center. (If anyone's interested in following it, there will be streaming via the link below.) There was a plan to boycott Phoenix entirely due to immigration policies (SB1070, etc.), but it was instead decided to go and do a special "justice-oriented" General Assembly instead. The activities will continue through Sunday, including a mass protest of Sheriff Arpaio's "tent city" Saturday afternoon.
