This is the second of several webinars being hosted by The Leadership Institute, the Ad Hoc Committee Against Racism, and the Apostolate for Black Catholics. Help spread the word with this flyer.
Please join us Thursdays at 1 pm for these important webinars that will focus on the racial challenges we face in America and in the Catholic Church.
Pre-registration for the live webinars (at 1 pm) is required, but registering once will register you for all webinars.
Today: Danielle Brown: Open Wide Our Hearts
Danielle Brown is the associate director for the Ad hoc Committee Against Racism of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. She will be discussing "Open Wide Our Hearts," the USCCB document in which, "the bishops say that racism arises when, either consciously or unconsciously, a person holds that his or her own race or ethnicity is superior and judges other people of other races or ethnicity as inferior or unworthy of equal regard.”
The document addresses many points, including that racism is a sin, especially when it excludes, mistreats or discriminates against people of another race. Danielle will help us unpack the document so we have a better understanding when we read it on our own.
