How to Raise An Antiracist Book Group

All are invited to join Sandy Spring Friends’ Religious Education Committee for a discussion of Ibram X. Kendi’s How to Raise an Antiracist.

"How do I raise an antiracist?" This is a question Dr. Kendi had been asking himself ever since he became a teacher--but the question became more personal and urgent when he found out his partner, Sadiqa, was pregnant. Like many parents, he didn't know how to answer the question--and wasn't sure he wanted to.

Join us as we work through this challenging topic together in a supportive, welcoming environment. The book group will meet once a month on fourth Wednesdays at 7:30pm starting in April. We will discuss chapter 1: “Birth of Denial” and an essay on Lesbian Parenting by Audre Lorde on Wednesday, April 24. On May 22, we will discuss chapters 3 & 4 (“Baby Nurture” and “Infant’s Doll”). Meetings are by Zoom; CLICK HERE to join. Copies of the book will be available in Sandy Spring Friends' library starting in April.
