This address will point to the ways the White Evangelical Church perpetuates white supremacy through its theology. Wallis will help us to re-imagine the role of the Church as a Co-Conspirator, creating the Beloved Community with a radical hospitality mission that embraces the true identity (ethnicity, language, and culture) of Jesus.
Rev. Cherisna Jean-Marie, Director of Racial Justice Ministries, will sit down with Nadia Bolz-Weber for a one-on-one interview, focusing on Bolz-Weber's journey as a White progressive leader. Bolz-Weber will share her own struggles and the ways she is still having to learn more and do more personal, intentional work in becoming a Co-Conspirator.
Our story session will get close and personal with activist Hannah Adair Bonner. Bonner will share her experience with Sandra Bland, a black woman killed in police custody in 2015, her relationship with Sandra, her activism during the protests, and the ways it personally affects her even now. Bonner will also share what being a co-conspirator means in everyday life, beyond activism, her relationship with white people as a co-conspirator, and the risks she faces each day. Finally, she will share what it took to begin shifting the narrative and rejecting dominant culture.
