St. Mark's Episcopal Church

anti-racism resources

"The 78th General Convention of our Church did a remarkable thing: the General Convention invited us as a church to take up this Jesus Movement. We made a commitment to live into being the Jesus Movement by committing to evangelism and the work of reconciliation — beginning with racial reconciliation … across the borders and boundaries that divide the human family of God. This is difficult work. But we can do it. It’s about listening and sharing. It’s about God.”

​Presiding Bishop Michael B. Curry

Racial Reconciliation and the Episcopal Church

Picture
The Episcopal Church and our diocese is committed to educating members on dismantling racism in light of the Christian message. The Diocese of Kentucky has a committee on racial reconciliation and has compiled a page for anti-racism conversations and action: Resources for Dismantling Racism.

Deconstructing White Privilege

Dr. Robin DiAngelo is a social scientist and anti-racism educator. In this video commissioned by the United Methodist Church's General Commission on Religion & Race (GCORR), she discusses white privilege. You can view the downloadable study guide on the GCORR website.
In a similar vein as Dr. DiAngelo's work, educator Peggy McIntosh compiled a list of ways in which white privilege affects daily interactions and decisions. You can view her web page: White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack.

​Veggie Tales creator Phil Vischer created a video explaining systemic racism for a mostly white Christian audience. You can view the article about his decision and the video itself on The Hill's website.
