SUMMARY:The Color of Compromise Discussion Group led by Rev. Stephanie Milton
DESCRIPTION:Reverend Stephanie Milton will guest preach and lead a three week book study based on Jemar Tisby’s book The Color of Compromise: The Truth about the American Church’s Complicity in Racism. Please join us for this exciting series.\n\nTisby’s The Color of Compromise: The Truth about the American Church’s Complicity in Racism sheds light on the history of racism within the American church and challenges readers to confront this uncomfortable truth. Through meticulous research and analysis\, Tisby provides a compelling narrative that underscores the urgent need for the church to actively work towards racial justice and reconciliation. The book traces the origin and perpetuation of racism in Christianity from Columbus’ invasion of the Americas through the current era in the United States. We’ll delve into the ways in which the church has been complicit in upholding systems of oppression and discrimination\, ultimately calling for a transformation towards a more inclusive and equitable faith community.\nRev. Stephanie Milton believes that the church can be a place of healing and transformation\, individually and within the community. The sacraments\, spiritual development\, and worship experience are vital to congregational life. Rev. Stephanie is a fifth-year doctoral candidate at the University of California\, Davis\, specializing in African American religion and healthcare. She holds a Master of Arts in Political Science from Washington University in St. Louis\, and a Master of Divinity from Candler School of Theology at Emory University. Her research interests include the confluence between religion and health\, the impact of spiritual and moral harm\, and decolonial feminist theology. Ordained in the United Church of Christ\, Rev. Stephanie has worked in diverse communities\, including sex and gender equity education in higher education\, advocating against intimate partner violence\, and providing spiritual care to US veterans.

SUMMARY:Author Night: Sacramento Noir
DESCRIPTION:THE AVID READER. Join  authors Jen Soong\, Luis Avalos\, José Vadi\, & Reyna Grande to celebrate the release of Sacramento Noir on March 10th at 6:00 PM. They will be joined in conversation by John Freeman. Jack Freeman writes in his introduction: “Here is Sacramento in all of its splendor & deep\, not-at-all-buried contradictions. A frontier city that quickly used its wealth to gather power. A locale that is somehow not quite sure it is still urban. Darkly compelling\, canopied\, gusted by river smells\, Sacramento emerges from these thirteen stories like a character itself.” 6p – 7p. Free.

SUMMARY:Author Talk: Grant Faulkner
DESCRIPTION:THE AVID READER. With increased compression\, every word\, every sentence matters more. A writer must learn how to form narratives around caesuras and crevices instead of strings of connections\, to move a story through the symbolic weight of images\, to master the power of suggestion. With elegant prose\, deep readings of other writers\, and scaffolded writing exercises\, The Art of Brevity takes the reader on a lyrical exploration of compact storytelling\, guiding readers to heighten their awareness of not only what appears on the page but also what doesn’t. Grant Faulkner is the executive director of National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) and the cofounder of 100 Word Story. 6p – 7p. Free.
