$ Dismantling White Silence in Churches (Iliff School of Theology)
August 12 All day
August 12 – September 2
This TIER course provides opportunities to reflect on white silence in churches, how to dismantle it, and how to work toward racial justice. By engaging our personal histories, creating storytelling that emphasizes accountability and imagination, we can work toward a future of hope and healing.
Students will engage Dr. Niero’s doctoral scholarship on racial justice, supplemented by work of other contemporary scholars. Students will read and analyze Dr. James Cone’s 2004 essay, “Theology’s Great Sin: Silence in the Face of White Supremacy,” and the course will culminate in the construction of an anti-racism theology that students can bring back to their own communities.
