What is Systemic Racism?
April 28, 2018 @ 5:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Throughout 2018, ELPC’s Mission Board will be presenting a series of events, titled Facing Systemic Racism. Discussions of racism often involve our personal experiences. What we may not realize is how racism in our social systems and institutions impacts our racial relationships. To tackle racism in our society, we need to acknowledge the systems in our society that create institutional racism and racial privilege.
Please join us for our first program on Saturday, April 28, 6–8 pm, as we explore our topic “What is Systemic Racism?” We will be led Laura Mariko Cheifetz, deputy director of systems and sustainability at the National Asian Pacific American Women’s Forum.
We will share a potluck dinner together, beginning at 5:30 pm. Bring a side or dessert to share.
Childcare is available with prior registration by calling 412.441.3800 x140.
