Hey Sistas,<\/p>\n

Join Abby Perry and me for our second episode of My Sista\u2019s Keeper: Shalom in the City\u2019s Monthly Conversation on Race and Unity. This month we\u2019re exploring the idea of hopefully resisting division.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When it comes to racial reconciliation conversations, what words seem to make us aware of division unlike any other? You got it, race\/racism\/racist. As challenging as those words are to discuss, we think it\u2019s worth it to really press in to what they mean in order to have a common, working definition as we go forward. So, on this episode, we\u2019re diving deep and getting all kinds of uncomfortable as we look at how race and racism operate in the world today. And we promise you, every word we say and question we ask \u2013 it\u2019s\u00a0all<\/i>\u00a0in the name of peacemaking.<\/p>\n[smart_podcast_player]\n

We\u2019ll be honest with you, this episode had us pretty sweaty! We share stories, ask questions, and speak truths that we are confident are necessary for bringing about true Shalom in racial reconciliation. It\u2019s a deep one, but we think it\u2019s a good, too.<\/p>\n

We want to know what you<\/i>\u00a0thought about this episode and what this conversation has you thinking about:\u00a0Come join us on Facebook at the Shalom Sistas\u2019 Hangout and share your thoughts!<\/p>\n
