This spring we will be doing a group read and discussion on Jennifer Harvey‘s new book, Raising White Kids: Bringing up Children in a Racially Unjust America. We will meet at least twice face-to-face (if you are local to CLT ) and will live stream these meetings via our facebook page (for those at a distance). Then, for our third meeting, we will conduct a live facebook interview with the author, Jennifer Harvey! If you are interested in participating, subscribe to our newsletter so that you get the details when they are announced!
