What does it mean to “wake up white” in 21st century America?

Join us each Wednesday night in January and February for fellowship and a conversation that focuses on issues of race, racial reconciliation, and what these conversations mean in our contemporary world. The conversation will use the Debby Irving book, Waking Up White: And Finding Myself in the Story of Race, as a launching pad for fierce and deep conversations with community leaders and advocates for racial equality in Jackson and beyond.

The series kicks off with a discussion of “The PC(USA) and Race” led by Rev. Rob Lowry.
