This bookclub will study Dr. Roxy Manning’s book “How to Have Antiracist Conversations: Embracing Our Full Humanity to Challenge White Supremacy.” Sessions are planned for Tuesday evenings online, Aug 13 and 27, Sept 10 (this date subject to change), and Sept 24.
Dr. Roxy Manning will be a guest at VanU in the Sunday service on October 6, 2024, interviewed by Rev. Shawn, sponsored by the Healthy Relations Team. Following the service Roxy will lead a workshop open to members and friends. Roxy’s book provides guidelines on authentic antiracist conversations that consider all of us part of Beloved Community (a concept promoted by Dr. Martin Luther King).
The purpose of the book club is to learn the skills in the book. Our learning will contribute to integrating the 8th Principle in ourselves and in our community, and will, we hope, enrich the October 6 workshop at VanU. The book can be purchased through Massy Books or Banyen Books, and may soon be available in the VanU library.
