Challenging Racism  Workshops at UUFCM

2/21/2018

 
Sunday, March 4 & 18
The Social Justice Coordinating Team is facilitating two more workshops to engage members and friends in racial justice work, utilizing the Interfaith Toolkit on Challenging Racism developed by MUUSJN. We will continue these adult RE sessions in the sanctuary on March 4 and 18, from 12:00-1:30 p.m., and a light lunch will be provided. Our sessions will involve articles, video clips, activities and discussion, with an emphasis on deeper understanding of white privilege and systemic racism. If you plan on attending, please contact Norma Bailey (989-560-3952; baile1nj@cmich.edu) so that we can know numbers for the light lunch. Feel free to come even if you were unable to attend previously.

To prepare for the workshop on March 4, please read the following articles:
  • Are You Sure You’re Not a Racist?  Article by Jodi Picoult
  • Different Rules Apply  Article by Matt Zoller Seitz
  • What I Said When My White Friend Asked for
    My Black Opinion on White Privilege   Article by Lori Lakin
  • Also, please take the Implicit Bias Test from Harvard.
