Racial healing is the first step toward racial equity that the first, second and third principles of Unitarian Universalism call us toward. Coming a little over a week before the eighth annual National Day of Racial Healing, during this discussion, Neil Sroka will explain what racial healing is and examine its connection to our shared journey towards racial equity.

As an extension of our MLK Day of Service, the Ministers Justice Coalition of Texas (MJC) will host an evening of healing and rebuilding relationships within our city. For the last decade, our city has become ground zero for racial intolerance and discrimination against African-Americans. In 2019, Atatiana Jefferson was gunned down in her home by the police. She was the tenth person shot by the Fort Worth Police within 6 months in 2019.

Pastor Kyev Tatum and the New Mount Rose Missionary Baptist Church has invited the MJC to host a day of healing and rebuilding in the City of Fort Worth in the Kirk Franklin Chapel.
