SUMMARY:Book Discussion | Banished from Johnstown
DESCRIPTION:Author Cody McDevitt will be with us to discuss his book\, Banished from Johnstown: Racist Backlash in Pennsylvania. The book examines one of the worst civil rights injustices in the history of Pennsylvania\, which took place in 1923. Join us for two opportunities to engage with Cody: once during the adult Church School hour with the Seekers class\, and again following Sanctuary worship. \nBanished from Johnstown chronicles a virtually unknown\, tragic episode in African American and Johnstown history. Samuel W. Black\, director of the African American Program at the Senator John Heinz History Center states\, “Recalling the national debate about race and constitutional rights and the willingness to express dictatorial rule over Black lives by white elected officials was not just a scene in large urban areas\, but the small\, mid-American heartland as well. \nThis opportunity is sponsored by our Adult Church School classes and the Facing Systemic Racism Ministry Team. You are encouraged to read the book in preparation for the discussion. \nTo borrow a book or ask questions\, contact Pastor Patrice at PatriceFS@coh.net or Gwen Puza at gpuza9@gmail.com. \nClick the button below to join the session via Zoom\, or you may call in by dialing 301.715.8592.
