Yet learning and growing in our own racial identities and working toward racial justice is an essential religious task, a form of soul work: work that seeks to heal some of the deepest wounds in each of us and between us. This fall, we are offering a Racial Justice Learning Group which will meet on Wednesday evenings, October 11 through November 8, from 6:30 PM-8 PM. This group will share grounding practices, readings, discussion, and learning exercises around racial identity and our quest for racial justice.
