Racism, Politics, Christianity, and Education

Overview
America’s Unholy Ghosts: How Racism Shaped Our Politics, Christianity, and Education is a 4-week course rooted in research and conversation.

Based on understanding how we came to be, we’ll round the course out by examining ways in which you can be part of fostering an egalitarian environment whether in faith, politics, or education.
