Come to a special screening of “13th,” an Oscar-nominated documentary exploring the history of race & criminal justice in America. Bring a potluck dinner dish to share. This event takes place in Fellowship Hall at Fauntleroy Church. FREE.
Tue, April 18, 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm
Fauntleroy Church
Why? Are you going to discuss the ills of your ancestors and how they’ve passed along your racists tendencies? Are you going to speak on the topic for a half hour and make yourselves feel as though you’re not part of the problem? Things like this are comical to me.
Would you rather nobody even try? This church for example spent a month talking about white privilege (see page 3 of the newsletter):

and while looking at its website, I noticed that tonight’s screening will be followed by several weekly followup sessions.
If you have specific suggestions/criticisms I’d imagine they’d be interested in hearing them at tonight’s event or another.
