Phoenix Fusion Presents: Conversation on Racism

Come join fellow Phoenix Fusion friends as we gather together via Zoom on Monday, August 17 @ 6:30 pm to discuss the movie: “The Hate U Give” (PG-13) based on Angie Thomas’ novel. The movie follows Starr Carter, a 16 year old girl who lives in the fictional, black neighborhood of Garden Heights, but attends a predominantly white private school and the fallout that ensues after she witnesses a police shooting. You are encouraged to watch the movie (which is on most digital platforms now) prior to attending the Discussion Group. Pastor Brent Maxwell from Gloria Dei Lutheran Church will be leading the discussion that will touch on difficult but relevant issues facing our communities right now. Below is the zoom link.

In September, we look forward to a two-night book discussion on “So you Want to Talk About Race” by Ijeoma Oluo. The event will be facilitated by Pastor Kari Williamson of St. Andrews and take place on September 21 and 28.

If you would like to be a part of the team working to bring these events to Phoenix Fusion, please send an email to phoenixfusionelca@gmail.com.
