  • Structural Racism in Action:
    North Nashville and the Legacy of I-40 

    Thursday, October 29
    7:00pm-8:30pm

    Linda T. Wynn
    Assistant Director for State Programs,
    Tennessee Historical Commission

    North Nashville in the 50s and 60s was alive with black businesses, artistry, and flourishing neighborhoods. The construction of I-40, opposed by the area's community leaders displaced families, isolated small businesses, and wrecked property values. This event is an example of structural racism: how city planning and federal housing policies deliberately protected white suburbs at the expense of black neighborhoods. Learn more about this historical moment from Tennessee State Historical Commission's Linda T. Wynn.

  • Anti-Racism Initiative Updates

    • CTK Antiracism Initiative in the Tennessee Register
      After the death of George Floyd while in the custody of Minneapolis police officers, parishioners at Christ the King Church in Nashville joined the national discussion about racism in the United States. Those discussions have led to the parish’s Anti-Racism Initiative that includes new discussions on the topic beginning in October.

    How Science, Politics, and Big Business Re-create Race in the Twenty-First Century
    by Dorothy Roberts

    7-8:30pm, Tuesday, November 17, 2020

    In this reading group, we'll be discussing Dorothy Roberts' book  Fatal Invention. This book examines how the myth of the biological concept of race—revived by purportedly cutting-edge science, race-specific drugs, genetic testing, and DNA databases—continues to undermine a just society and promote inequality in a supposedly “post-racial” era.
    Zoom Meeting Link

    While a modicum of structure will be provided, expect a fairly informal and free-flowing discussion of this book. Our assumption is that participants will have a copy of the selected text and will have read it (or at least most of it.) But don't let this stop you from joining in and listening to our discussion!

    The book is widely available online in a variety of formats, as well as locally at Parnassus and Barnes & Noble. Please reach out if you have any trouble locating or purchasing a copy.
