Deconstructing Whiteness Resource Page

Welcome to the Deconstructing Whiteness Resource page. We’ll be posting resources here, check back often!

The book group began January 13, 2019, with a book series discussion on what it means to be white in the United States. This facilitated conversation will cover the social structures of race that impact our lives, how systemic and structural racism works and what we can do about it, and deconstructing whiteness.

Sundays 5:15-7:00 pm, 2nd & 4th Sundays. UPDATE: We will be continuing the book club indefinitely, please see below for information on our new book selections. You are welcome to join us once you have completed any of our other antiracism book groups. This group is ongoing for the foreseeable future. Email Robin Slaw, Director of Religious Education, for more information.
