When was the last time you overheard someone make a xenophobic comment or a racist joke? Did you feel prepared to respond in the moment? If so, how did it go? Want more practice? Most people -- especially those of us who are white people -- really could benefit from practice, practice, practice.
You are invited to join us:

"I've learned that when it comes to race, there's no such thing as neutral: either I'm intentionally and strategically working against it, or I'm aiding and abetting the system." ― Debby Irving, Waking Up White: and Finding Myself in the Story of Race.
A collaborative effort between the Unitarian Church of Montpelier and Central VT Showing Up for Racial Justice.
