To help us explore our duty as a Reconciling in Christ (RIC) congregation to work toward racial justice, Pastor Stephanie will lead a five-week discussion of the book Spell Freedom: The Underground Schools That Built the Civil Rights Movement by Elaine Weiss. The book tells the story of civil rights activists in the 1950s and 1960s who risked their lives to secretly prepare Black southerners to pass Jim Crow-era voter-registration literacy tests. Participants should buy copies of the book and bring them to the first session.
