By: Dr. William F. Schulz
Dr. Schulz explores why UU values are so critical at this particular point in our national life.
As Executive Director of Amnesty International USA from 1994-2006, Dr. Schulz headed the American section of the world’s oldest and largest international human rights organization. An ordained Unitarian Universalist minister, Dr. Schulz came to Amnesty after serving for fifteen years with the Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations (UUA), the last eight as President of the Association. He is currently a Senior Fellow at the Center for American Progress in Washington, D.C., a Fellow at the Carr Center for Human Rights Policy at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, and an Adjunct Professor at the New School in New York City. Dr. Schulz is the author of two books on human rights, In Our Own Best Interest: How Defending Human Rights Benefits Us All and Tainted Legacy: 9/11 and the Ruin of Human Rights. He is the contributing editor of an upcoming book entitled The Phenomenon of Torture: Readings and Commentary and he is regularly quoted in the New York Times and other national publications. The New York Review of Books said in 2002, “William Schulz…has done more than anyone in the American human rights movement to make human rights issues known in the United States.â€
