|Recurring Event (See all)

An event every week that begins at 7:00 pm on Wednesday, repeating until April 28, 2021

Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents

Join a small group of church members and friends for a three-part discussion. We will talk about the issues and insights raised by reading “Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents” by Isabel Wilkerson.

In this brilliant book, Wilkerson gives us a masterful portrait of an unseen phenomenon in America. She explores, through a deeply researched narrative and stories about real people, how America has been shaped by a hidden caste system. And, how this structure is a rigid hierarchy of human rankings.

Sessions will:

  • facilitate a safe space for sharing
  • generate common ground among participants

When you join this group, reading the book is essential. Please read through Chapter 9 (Part 3) before the first session.
