Greetings from Al Polito. Bethany Pres. church Grundy Center, IA

01:30:31
To me the important question is how do you change the mind of those in leadership in churches to practice Matthew 25? These individuals have blinders on and they quote typical phrases that promote privilege and status quo.

01:32:46
Apologies, but it does not seem like we are equipped with closed captioning for this meeting. That is absolutely something we need to keep in mind for future meetings.

01:33:25
Part of the challenge is how we move people from simply responding to the needs that have resulted from poverty, racism (like providing meals) to addressing the systemic roots. Especially for an older congregation.

01:34:09
Greetings to everyone from Yaphank Presbyterian Church, Presbytery of Long Island.

01:34:44
Michelle - that is indeed the large issue. I wonder how we train people to begin to ask the WHY questions for each act of compassion we do - school supplies for children, healthy snacks for school children, water for the homeless center, etc

01:35:35
Having read Ibram Kendi's "How to be an Anti-racist," I firmly believe that voting rights -- which are being infringed upon in many states -- are a first step towards changes in national policy..

01:36:10
We as majority folks need to be some of the loudest supporters of this, acknowledging that some of our fellow leaders will listen to us in a different way than our siblings of color.

01:36:28
The Spirit is moving non-White youth, and we should follow them!

01:36:54
I am currently working with a congregation with an older congregation which isn't growing; but they would rather stay white, old, with no pastor than reach out to the changing community around them. They think they are doing fine and wuld rarher stay this way until they can no longer sustain and sell the church.

01:37:20
Amen. #followthemoney

01:37:27
This is a re-curring theme in many presbyteries.

01:37:40
Adebisi, there are so many churches like yours.

supporting a REAL Living Wage

01:38:35

01:39:51
Access to internet is a social justice issue that should be free for all people as disparity in personal internet exasperates social disparity already present

01:40:29
My wife works at a public library and can attest to the need for public internet access.

01:40:53
Yes, yes! Preach

01:40:56
Covid has made it even more difficult, as libraries and public internet spaces are still closed here.

01:44:12
Let's Pray with our feet!

01:44:15
Our churches can help people in need with electrical and water bills as well as internet access.

01:44:20
Thank you, Karen Brown!! We need to keep hearing your voice!

01:44:50
Consider starting with what is strong vs wrong

01:44:55
Adebisi I too am in such a church. Like Rev. Ruthanne I am taking the challenge regardless of which "congregation" I may be in. Time to show others that the Church is NOT a building!

01:45:25
Thank you Elona and Karen for your message!

01:46:30
That is very helpful

01:46:58
Book study needs to be a start….

01:46:59
On my agenda for reading is White Fragility, to open myself to what keeps our whiteness white.

01:47:22
For BIPOC these are things that are urgent… and usually are matters of life and death… spiritually, emotionally and physically.

01:47:36

01:48:25
What is sun downing

01:48:42
Paul, might I humbly suggest another anti-racism book authored by a Black person instead? Like "How to be an Anti-Racist" by Ibram X. Kendi or "Me and White Supremacy" by Layla Saad?

01:48:58
Carol Day, sundown towns were/are towns in which people of color -- Black folks, specifically_ were not welcome after sundown.

01:49:03
Thanks you to Denise and others for that work you are doing!

01:49:05
Yes, on my list as well!

01:49:05
Sundown towns were towns that said no Black folks or Jewish folks in town after sundown

01:49:08
Stamped From the Beginning is excellent also (Ibram Kendi)

01:49:39
Sundown towns were all over the country

01:49:45
My wife is a diversity consultant- white, Christian, veteran, and queer. She specializes in teaching diversity and equity to white people. If anyone wants to speak to her, she does talks and trainings, including online. She's worked for churches, school systems, universities, corporations, and organizations, and I know her interest is creating an anti-racist Presbyterian system. taranapoleone@gmail.com

01:49:51
Sundowning laws existed to keep Black people out of small towns after 5:00 p.m. This occurred all over Missouri and thousands of other towns in USA.

01:49:53
Excellent book for any church to begin is United Against Racism from the National Council of Churches.

01:50:11
Slavery by Another Name by Douglas Blackmon; The Warmth of Other Suns by Isabel Wilkerson; Just Mercy, the book, by Bryan Stevenson; Talking to Strangers by Malcolm Gladwell (white author)

01:50:24
YES, let BLM Chapters meet in Predominately White Churches. Good idea!

01:51:27
BLM leaders don't necessarily trust churches.

01:51:35
Even when we don't realize it...

01:52:14
a kind of asymptomatic COVID, but only because we DON'T see the effect of our innate racism

01:52:31
Amen, Paul.

01:52:39
One feature of the current pandemic is that it has cast light on the degree to which our middle-class white culture depends on the essential workers of color. We now KNOW what we do in terms of literally killing our meat processors, our health care workers, our clerks, our sanitation workers. So we MUST vote for politicians who will vote for social supports for the workers in our society.

01:52:44
Where is the faith in action?

01:52:52
http://intercultural-matters.com/intercultural-matters/mutual-invitation-eric-law/

01:53:56
The Faith in Action in this movement IS the Matt 25: seeing Jesus in ALL people, regardless of race, even creed, as well as all the other separations.

01:54:00
It's also the current reality for any mother or father of a brown skinned child/adult who wants to go out after dark just to fellowship with their friend who may not come home. We now know this is not limited to the evening but these modern day lynching's can happen early in the morning with live videos for the entire world to see. We shall overcome.

01:54:18
Can you say more about the equity model of giving/funding?

01:54:33
Amen, Karen

01:54:55
Yes, Denise and I are so fortunate to have the honor of co-staffing the Special Committee on Racism Truth and Reconciliation. Keep up with their work on Facebook @PCUSASpecialCommitteeracetruthreconciliation

01:55:04
I am certainly aware of BLM members/leaders who don’t want anything to do with a white church. Mind you, some of that may have to do with contributing to our funding when we have participated in their oppression. So use of the building at no charge may be a better plan.

01:55:23
“An Apology for the Sin of Racism to our African American Sisters and Brothers” developed by a bi-racial group of elders and pastors was adopted by the Presbytery of Giddings-Lovejoy in Feb - beginning to be used to create dialogue around white privilege and the legacy of racism at session level as well soon to be part of pastors’ anti-racism training - See: glpby.org/ “Social Action” to click on “The Apology” to see if it might be usable in your context or spark your own ideas. Rev. Junie Ewing Bridge Associate Presbytery Leader.

01:55:39
I love these models and examples you are offering Rev. Shoop! So tangible and substantive

01:57:43
Matthew 25 mission is INSIDE-OUT (church as base, not destination); UPSIDE-DOWN (grassroots/empowering and directed to the poor, the marginalized and others at/near the bottom of social hierarchy); and STICKY (focused on building relationships; focusing on making mission partners, not mission recipients)

01:58:09
Rethink how building keeps abuse of power: stained glass windows showing all white saints and Jesus.

01:58:28
Nicely said, Daniel

01:58:45
Rev. Shoop, is your congregation integrated?

01:58:50
Isabel Wilkerson has a new book coming out next month - Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents.

01:58:53
Just a comment about lending spaces… session and people have to be prepared to do so… if not relationships with groups can turn into leasing agreements that do not lead to partnerships. Neighborhood church is a good book to read to think about true partnerships with outside organizations.

01:59:24
There is a 'dying to self' that white folk need to consider... esp. those of us older, white and, in my case, male

01:59:47
Amen Paul. It is scary for many

01:59:58
It was for Jesus, too...

02:00:21
Amen Amen and ever Amen

02:00:33
Revolution without self revelation… it is a scary thing.

02:00:55
John 16: 33 Jesus said, "But take courage! I have conquered the world.

02:01:15
Has anyone led an historical audit of their property and congregation?

02:01:23
How to do this work in light of pandemic restrictions?

02:01:49
"historical audit?"

02:02:31
Who we were… and who we are.

02:02:43
Amen,Denise!

02:03:30
Who are we? Who have we been?

02:04:12
Pastors who do not speak English…

02:04:19
Understanding the bigger historical picture where are churches are and how we participated in that history or did not participate.

02:05:06
recently read this: in being allies, we need to watch the line between amplifying the voice(s) and becoming the voice(s), between being supportive and being the white savior.

02:05:07
Thank you Denise!

02:05:12
White rescuers!

02:05:24
Amen Sylvia

02:07:20
I so agree that those who are white, without deep self examination, can't even recognize white superiority. And we often learn to do the right thing and obey the law. But we aren't regularly taught about taking action when the laws are not just!

02:07:31
Our “Apology” is looking at how white folks need to repent and do the work on themselves as the place to begin. Rev. Junie Ewing GLPBY

02:07:44
thank you Shanea!

02:08:03
Yes!

02:08:08
Question: With the Center and a Seminary in town, how is the blm and protest in downtown Lou being resourced/embodied?

02:08:28
I need to hope off for another meeting. Thank you all—terrific resources here.

02:08:59
So true Bryce.

02:09:38
Walter Wink's series on the Powers echoes your analysis, Bryce.

02:10:50
Thank you for this--it has been very helpful.

02:11:13
The VCC is studying "The Color of Compromise: The Truth About the American Church's Complicity in Racism" by Jemar Tisby. VERY enlightening!

02:11:42
Judith - There is a strong presence in the Louisville protests from LPTS students and alums in the area, including the current student body president Adrian Baker. (I cannot speak to the Center involvement.)

02:12:37
The one thing we all have in common is the love and grace of our Lord Jesus. If the Lord is with us who can be against us?

02:13:20
We have to understand racism in the context of money.

02:13:33
POC's compete with each other and what we can gain from the dominate culture

02:13:36
Two key questions: 1. How does this advantage those who are white/rich, etc? 2. How does this disadvantage those of color?

02:13:37
so maybe "being of value" needs to be something other than white, old, and male

02:13:38
thank you so much !

02:13:39
and cis

02:13:39
Amen, Adebisi

02:13:43
Thank you! Great conversation!

02:13:45
Don't we need to be aware and understand our history as a nation to begin to understand the system of privilege and white supremacy that pervades everything. Good Reading is "An indigenous People's History of the Untied States" by Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz.

02:13:45
Thank you!

02:13:46
There is also the issue with language that comes from right-wing media...I have personally fallen into the trap of talking about white privilege and implicit bias, etc., not knowing how right-wing media was defining these terms. I found that I was speaking about one thing, and my congregation who listened to right-wing media were hearing something other than my message. How do we learn their definitions without having to immerse ourselves in the vitriol to understand what are congregations are hearing?

02:13:47
thank you - great conversation and so much to take away

02:13:49
Yes, we Blacks cannibalize each other in a race to the white bottom

02:13:49
Thank you all for this!

02:13:50
Thanks to you all

02:13:55
thank you.
