Seeing the Face of God in Each Other: An Anti-Racism Workshop

The Seeing the Face of God in Each Other Antiracism Workshop (SFG) is an interactive and experiential workshop created by the Episcopal Church. It is not a lecture. The curriculum includes power, privilege, race, racism, class, internalized racial oppression, and next steps.

The Antiracism Training and Action program of the Episcopal Church is a process for dismantling racism in the church and in society. This methodology promotes learning which is both experiential and intellectual. The first goal of this methodology is that participants will be able to analyze the dynamics of power and oppression so that they can engage in the visioning of an alternate reality for the church and society. That vision for us is the creation of the Beloved Community. However, in constructing the foundation of a just and equitable church and society, we must first receive training to understand the building blocks of racism and oppression so that we can truly become antiracists. This will occur on the personal, interpersonal, institutional, and systemic levels.

The Rev. T. Scott Allen, Diocese of Bethlehem
