Coming this Spring, Episcopal City Mission will be hosting a 3 month program for Episcopalian groups and individuals with a focus on action towards reparations and the racial wealth gap. This upcoming program will be a particularly good fit for individuals and groups that have already done some racial justice education, such as the Sacred Ground series or the reparations toolkit hosted by the Diocese of MA, and who are looking for what action steps they can take next. 

The program will be a spiritually grounded space for personal transformation, relationship building, both joy and reckoning, and most of all concrete and bold action in the world. As part of the program, we'll be developing longer-term campaigns and projects on shrinking the racial wealth gap.

We plan to have space for caucus (breakout) groups by race and possibly class identity to recognize that, while we all have ways we can contribute, the responsibility of closing the racial wealth gap most directly falls into the hands of white communities who have benefited from unfair advantages throughout this nation's history.

"Bridging the Gap" will occur in 6 sessions over zoom on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays each month from 6:30-8pm, starting on March 22.

(Dates include: March 22nd; April 12th; April 26th; May 10th; May 24th; June 14th)
