ABOUT

Our conversations about racism keep stalling, because we are arguing from different starting points.


The Architecture of Racism is a two-week online course that explores a deeper theology of racism; one that holds together individual, structural, and spiritual dimensions as a complex, interlocking system of desire, narrative, structure, and fruit.
