Becoming Beloved Community 2, Tuesdays, August 23 - October 25, 7 – 8pm
This course builds upon the learning about systemic racism from the Becoming Beloved Community 1 course. Theological reflection will be the primary means through which we explore how to live into our identities as antiracists. We will take a deep dive into our formation as disciples and how that influences our fight to eliminate systemic racism. This 10-week course will be an online Zoom meeting, hosted on Tuesday evenings, 7-8:00pm. The instructors will be the Rev. Kevin Barron and Dr. Marion Schwartz. Prerequisite: Students must have taken the Becoming Beloved Community 1 course to enroll in this course. Register at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/becoming-beloved-community-2-tickets-317224285377
