Session 1: Who We Must Be
Often our discussions of justice focus on external realities we desire to change, but we may lose sight of the inner changes that must take place as well. This session will highlight four virtues that characterize people who engage in justice work.

Session 2: Red and Blue and Black and White
While we must focus on specific policies and personnel in each election, our politics is starkly divided along racial lines. There’s a history and a theology connected to this division. This session explains why people of different races and ethnicities vote the way they do.
