Anxious to Talk About It: Helping White Christians Talk Faithfully about Racism

Fri 2 PM | Landing

Carolyn B. Helsel

Helsel takes a storytelling approach to attend to the emotions people experience when hearing and telling stories about race. Part of the struggle involves remaining compassionate towards ourselves through the journey. Drawing from language of spiritual practices, Helsel encourages participants to deepen their capacity for tough conversations and points to how to have these conversations with others.
