Koinonia: Day Seminar Nov. 16, 9 am – 4 pm

Updated on

The KOINONIA School of Race and Justice intends to be a part of God’s ministry of racial reconciliation and is grounded in the Christian tradition. You can engage in reducing racism by being instruments of justice in your own sphere of influence.

The school is designed to equip people in three ways: to engage in transformative and self-reflective work around race; to engage in constructive dialogue regarding issues of race and justice; and to engage in the larger community to promote social justice. You will explore broad topics related to race and justice, such as history, diversity, shame, grief, lament, trauma, privilege, class, education, and media.

This seminar covers the History of Race in Richmond, and will include hiking the Trail of Enslaved Africans, and group processing of the day’s experiences.

This day-seminar runs Saturday from 9-4 on November 16. The cost is $50, which includes lunch.
