It has been just over 50 years since the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King proclaimed his dreams for his country on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial before a crowd of 250,000 black and white Americans. How far have we come in the ensuing 50 years? What is the current state of the dream Dr. King so eloquently articulated? How far do we still have to go? Lay minister Dr. Tony Stringer returns to the UUCO pulpit this Sunday, January 18, 2015 to explore what we, as Unitarian Universalists, are morally and theological compelled to do to keep the dream alive.
Dr. Anthony Y. (Tony) Stringer is Professor and Director of Rehabilitation Neuropsychology in the Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta, GA. In his professional life, Tony provides diagnostic and rehabilitative care to persons with various neurological conditions; conducts research on brain recovery; is president-elect of the American Board of Clinical Neuropsychology; and for his scientific work, has been named a Fellow of the National Academy of Neuropsychology, the American Academy of Clinical Neuropsychology, and the American Psychological Association. In his religious life, Tony has been a lay minister for two UU congregations, authored a book chapter and a curriculum on lay ministry, served as president of The Mountain UU Camp and Conference Center, co-founded a UU African Percussion Choir that was included in the opening ceremony of the Olympics in 1996, and currently serves as a psychologist on the UUA Ministerial Fellowship Committee. Tony lives with his wife of 37 years (and occasionally with one or more children and grandchildren), and enthusiastically enjoys travel, jazz, cooking, flat water kayaking, photography, meditation, chess, and voracious reading. Tony's nature and travel photographs have been included in rotating exhibits at Emory University Hospital.
