There are few concerns of greater complexity in American society than the issue of race.
Most Americans only discern race at a surface level. They are unaware of the extent to which race has shaped and continues to shape all American institutions, including the church. This four-week course will take a deep dive into America’s racialized histories to gain awareness of how these histories continue to shape our present and our future.
Through lectures, discussions, readings, documentaries, guest speakers, and a guided project, students will become more knowledgeable of the complexities of the rage-inducing realities that people of color face daily, so that they might emerge as antiracists committed to eradicating these continuous brutalities and horrors.
