Our book studies of White Fragility have met twice in small groups and are reconvening online through Zoom for two more sessions. If you’re reading White Fragility and would like to join us to discuss, you are invited to join one of the times listed below. If you were already in a group, you can still meet at that time or select a new group if needed. Not already in a group? You are welcome to join any of these. These small groups have already discussed chapters 1-6, so please be prepared to discuss chapters 7-9 this week.
