Radical Acting in Faith for White People self-study e-course
A four session e-course for white people of faith to deepen their embodied work for racial justice, self-study version.
Engage in deep, embodied learning and practice with other white people of faith working to end white supremacy. We will build the skills to show up fully, follow BIPOC leadership, speak effectively, and engage in direct action. Join Lucy Duncan, Lisa Graustein, and Mila Hamilton in sessions co-designed by Shanene Herbert and Sharon Goens-Bradley and prepare to take meaningful risks in the struggle for racial justice.
Join our efforts to end the detention of Palestinian children
In 2015, AFSC and Defense for Children International-Palestine launched the No Way to Treat a Child campaign to challenge the Israeli occupation of Palestinians by exposing the systematic ill treatment of Palestinian children in Israeli military detention. Since then, the campaign has mobilized Quakers, other faith communities, and many others across the U.S. to urge Congress to work to stop the detention of Palestinian children and end the occupation. We hope you and your meeting/church will join our efforts!
