Racial Reconciliation Series 2019

November 16, 2019 @ 8:30 am - 4:30 pm

Registration begins at 8:30, Program begins at 9:00.

Sacred Ground

A Film-Based Dialogue Series on Race & Faith

 

WHAT IS THE SACRED GROUND RACE DIALOGUE SERIES?

  • Sacred Ground is a sensitive, prayerful resource that creates space for difficult but respectful and transformative dialogue on race and racism.
  • It invites participants to walk back through history in order to peel away the layers that brought us to today, reflecting on family histories and stories, as well as important narratives that shape the collective American story.
  • It holds as a guiding star the vision of beloved community – where all people are honored and protected and nurtured as beloved children of God, where we weep at one another’s pain and seek one another’s flourishing.

The dialogue  series developer and author is Katrina Browne, producer/director of the documentary Traces of the Trade: A Story from the Deep North. Browne is a lifelong Episcopalian who is dedicated to racial justice and healing. As a white woman, she is particularly concerned with the important work white people need to do in conversation with each other, as part of the larger project of Becoming Beloved Community. “I’m excited to share some powerful, thought-provoking films and readings with groups eager to take next steps on this collective journey,” Browne says. “I’m convinced that dialogue – especially among white people – can be a key healthy step in the long journey to transformation.” Browne engaged a diverse group of advisors and reviewers to guide the process.
