Learning to Disengage from Bias

This year our Conversations Worth Having event will be held on MLK weekend, Saturday, January 18, from 12 noon to 4 pm. 

The topic is one of vital importance to us as a nation: How do we come to terms with our own biases?  Perhaps they are racial, perhaps economic…how do we identify what we are burdened with that keeps us from being the Christians we are called to be?

Our facilitator for the day will be Dr. Eve Higginbotham, Vice Dean for Inclusion and Diversity of the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania.

Lunch will be provided; parallel programming for children will also be included. On-street parking is available with placard.

What better way to give thanks for Dr. King’s life than to engage in the very sort of examination of our own lives and discipleship that leads to the sort of beloved community Dr. King believed possible. 

Anyone with an interest in this topic is invited to attend. Please register!

These pre-workshop reading materials will enhance our conversation! (Print copies are available at the church; call or email to request a copy.)
