The Church and the Challenge of Antiracism

On January 24, Bill Saint, Sara Parker and Susie Farr will present ideas and concepts from a Next Church webinar entitled The Challenge of Antiracism. Next Church is a purposeful relational community of Presbyterian leaders whose mission is to strengthen a vibrant and thriving PC(USA) that shares the good news of Jesus Christ in ways that matter to and have impact on God’s evolving world. It works to cultivate congregations and leaders who work in sustained, effective, and faithful ways to promote God’s transformation of our communities for the common good. 

During the discussion, we will cover such topics as what is antiracism, what is white supremacy and how is the church is complicit in sustaining white supremacy. The goal of our session is to engage in a lively discussion that will give us all ideas and perspectives as we move forward. We are not the experts and we seek to grow our own understanding as well as that of participants.
