The New Jim Crow

Share This Post

Thursdays: March 2, April 6 and May 4 at 6:45 pm.

On the first Thursday evening in each of the next three months, we will continue our study of The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in an Age of Colorblindness. This will be a break from our regularly scheduled Bible study, but we hope to consider these issues, as theologian Karl Barth is reported to have said, “with the Bible in one hand and the newspaper in the other.”

We had a great discussion in February, and ask that you arrive at the March session having read chapters 2 and 3. Please read and join us, even if you cannot come for all sessions. For more information, please speak to Mother Liz.
