Are We a Racist Society?

Leaders:  Peggy Maxwell and Jean Southard
On Thursday evenings, beginning October 8 and ending November 12, 7:00 p.m.
 
We will read Robin DiAngelo’s book White Fragility and discuss how people of good faith can become more racially aware and begin to make positive change in our society.  We will talk about how the stigma around the word “racism” makes it hard for good people to come to terms with our socialization into a society where being white confers advantage.  Participants are asked to obtain a copy of the book and read the first two chapters by October 8.

We will meet by Zoom for approximately 90 minutes. 
 
Limited to 12 participants.
