The North Central & South Central Regions
are collaborating to offer a series of three films, with facilitated conversation to follow, as a way to explore race and racism.
The desire is to commit to viewing the movies and some of the panel discussions from the Trinity Church Wall Street conference,
Scene & Unseen,
so that we can deeply engage with our own involvement in racism and begin to work together to create beloved community.
The event is free.
We ask that you please register in advance for planning purposes.
