Lenten Study: Uprooting Racism
Lenten Study: Keystone UCC online: Uprooting Racism:
2 Wednesday eves: Keystone Lenten study: @ zoom with Pastor Lauren:
Wed. Mar. 10, 6:30-7:30 pm (try the checklist on p. 44)
Wed. Mar. 17, 6:30 -7:30 pm
Perhaps you have hadenoughreflection on your mortality by now, this harrowing year(?!) Painfully aware of your return to dust? This Lent we live amidst so many losses & separations. So this study will bring forth our own stories, as we learn that care of self is inextricably part of care of community. We will use a collection of brief multi-media prompts (video and articles and the book) for our discussion. So, come as we sharpen our courage to be more bold and public in speaking and acting to Uproot Racism. We will be looking at intersections, in our racial, economic, and environmental justice efforts at Keystone.
This season of Lenten contemplation, has astrongplea to lead us toward Easter this year. And thanks to a small group at Keystone who are helping to prepare the two Wednesdays, we will especially be examining our Christian tradition's complicity in white supremacy, with a confessional spirit. We will strive to lovingly probe our call to become stronger anti-racist actors in all our varied advocacy and activism, for the healing of our world.
Two Wednesdays in March are for our Uprooting Racism discussion online RSVP
And/or... Quarterly Monday Meetings via Admiral UCC: Uprooting Racism (if you opt in) startMon. Mar. 22, 7-8:30 pm, (different zoom link with Registration below, through Admiral UCC, West Seattle & West Side Unitarian) with a Keystone small break out group, p. 1-75.
Details:
Uprooting Racism: study opportunities: take a short deep dive on the 2 Wednesdays; or, take a longer term discussion (more Mondays), with Paul Kivel's work. Both offer an intimate conversation group with others @ Keystone. We are talking through our own histories, stories, & experiences, as we encourage one another to act ever more faithfully for racial justice.
Here is a local Seattle bookstore to support if you like, as you grab your own book: Estelita's Library- Justice Focused Community Bookstore.
Read a great description of Estelita'shere in recent Seattle Times article (thank you Marilyn!)
Or get your reading started: 25 pages posted here (Thanks Admiral UCC!)
Note: The longer track: that just meets 4 times quarterly, with the Monday March 22 begin date (zoom), joins other PNC folks & Admiral UCC. It does, however, still include a Keystone break out group, as a workshop space to apply learnings for our particular church setting. (We each can Register here.) See the promo materials are here, and you can get more info: www.AdmiralChurch.org/UprootingRacism. 100% of registration fees will be donated to the Poor People's Campaign for Moral Revival. Talk toLaurenfor more info -or for the sliding scale option.
Zoom: gatherings with Keystone occur online in the same space we use on Sundays & Wednesdays, so a Cheat Sheet will come in your email. Note: the Mar. 22 track with Admiral UCC will use a different link, that will be shared, after you register (Then see you in the Break Out Room!)
