About this event
Recovering Racist: Dismantling White Supremacy and Reclaiming Our Humanity by Idelette McVicker
As a white Afrikaner woman growing up in South Africa during apartheid, Idelette McVicker was steeped in a community and a church that reinforced racism and shielded her from seeing her neighbors' oppression. Recovering Racists shares McVicker's journey over thirty years and across three continents to shatter the lies of white supremacy embedded deep within her soul.
She helps us realize that grappling with the legacy of white supremacy and recovering from racism is lifelong work that requires both inner transformation and societal change. As we work for the freedom for everyone, we also find freedom for ourselves.
Join us for five on-line sessions, Tuesday’s November 1st - 29th , 3 p.m. Or 7 p.m. each week.
Approved for PSEC Diversity Training Credits
