Reckoning with Race: The History & Persistence of White Supremacy in the Church
October 30, 2022 @ 9:45 am - 10:45 am
The Facing Systemic Racism Committee invites you to a new series that’s designed to provide a big picture overview of how Christianity invented, codified, perpetuated, and benefited from white supremacy. Led by Dr. Brock Bahler, we will consider not only how we continue to be implicated in this history, but also how we can lament, respond to, and develop reparations for this injustice. The program will consist of a lecture and small group discussion.
Our first session will be on Sunday, October 30, during the Church School hour, 9:45 am. For details, email Michele Bossers.
Join us in person in the Social Hall or online via Zoom. If you’d like to join by telephone, call 929.205.6099 and enter Meeting ID 188 135 194 when prompted (press # if asked for a personal ID).
