Join us for the final installment of our Edgar and Dorothy Davidson Lecture Series! Racialized discourses and racial injustices are an integral part of contemporary life. So how do you teach about race and ethnicity in the Bible, and how can these insights be used to open a broader conversation about the role of biblical narratives in the public square? Join us online, via Zoom Webinar, for this discussion with The Rev. Dr. Gay L. Byron from Howard University School of Divinity in Washington, DC.
