Online Adult Religious Education — 2 May 2021

Please join us on Sunday (2 May 2021) at 9:00 AM for our adult religious education class via Zoom.

We will resume our White Fragility book study group with Susan Caldwell and Barbara Deger (using the book by Robin DiAngelo).

This week we will concentrate on Chapter 5 — “The Good/Bad Binary.”

White people often buy into the notion that “since only bad people are racist, and I am a good person, I have no complicity in racism and no responsibility to work on dismantling it.”

How do we move away from that kind of thinking into a more constructive mindset?

We have one additional copy of this book available if anyone else needs a copy.  And we can also order more if needed.
