Close to 130 people gathered in the Parish Hall to hear The Rev. Dr. Pamela Cooper-White at St. Mark’s Community, Faith, and Racial Justice Speaker Series on May 8. Her talk on The Psychology of White Christian Nationalism: Why People are Drawn In and How to Talk Across the Divide brought daunting issues and questions to the fore and led to powerful conversations.
MANY THANKS to the Becoming Beloved Community (BBC) Task Force and to all the volunteers who helped make the event a success and a welcoming space for the many visitors and our co-sponsors. These are the discussions that will help lead to collaborative action! The BBC speaker series continues on September 18 with community organizer and author Leah Rothstein addressing Challenging Segregation with Just Action. Mark your calendars!
