Confronting Racism Resources
As we as individuals and as a community struggle to confront racism and biases that we may not even realize we have, let us do so in love and with persistence. Below are some websites and resources that are available to help us educate ourselves as well as find ways to reach out and make a difference. This list is of course not all that is out there. Keep reading, watching and learning! If you find something that you believe is worth sharing, please send the link or information to Pastor Sheryl at sheryl@champaignfaith.org
