Wednesdays Together

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 continues with guest speaker Kenneth Townsend of Millsaps College.

Coming Up:
January 30: Book Discussion 2 — led by Rev. Rob Lowry
February 6: Guest Speaker TBD
February 13: Final Book Discussion
February 20: Guest Speaker TBD
February 27: Where Do We Go from Here? — led by Rev. Rob Lowry

This program is free and open to the public.
