How to Be an Anti-Racist:  How to act as an anti-racist with guests Rachel Zolensky and Andrew Krinks.
Wednesday, September 16, 2020, 3:30 p.m. - 4:30 p.m.

While being sequestered,  join the Social Justice Committee in a group read and discussion of a recent book by Ibrahim Kendi, How to be An Anti-Racist. Dr. Kendi is an award-winning author whose previous book, Stamped from the Beginning, chronicled the history of racist thought in America.  

Through a shared book reading experience , Dr. Kendi will enlighten us with his concept of anti-racism which can re-energize and re-shape our conversation about racial justice in America.  The concept of anti-racism can point us towards liberating new ways of thinking about ourselves and each other. Dr. Kendi challenges us to think about what an anti-racist society might look like and how we can play an active role in building it.

While we are all sequestered in place, we will arrange reading groups through Zoom to begin after Passover. There will also be an opportunity to share our experience with Dr. Kendi when he comes to Nashville in June 2021 for the 2021 Christian Scholars Conference at Lipscomb University.  If you are interested, contact Irwin Venick at irwin.venick@gmail.com.
