Sandy Spring Meeting’s Simple Dinner Gathering and Discussion via Zoom will be held on Saturday June 20, 2020, beginning at 6 pm, focused on sharing on the theme of “How do We Become the Anti-Racist Community We Envision?” The simple meal begins at 6 pm, with the discussion and worship sharing to begin at 6:30 pm. A member of Baltimore Yearly Meeting’s Growing Diverse Leadership group will lead the discussion and sharing. All Friends throughout BYM and elsewhere are welcome and encouraged to join us to discuss this challenging and timely subject. It will be helpful for participants to prepare by reading the BYM Anti-Racism Statement and associated queries within that document, located at https://www.bym-rsf.org/publicatoins/antiracism.html. Also, consider watching the movie “Just Mercy.” It is free (through 6/30/20) on many platforms. Go to https://justmercy.eji.org/ to see listings or watch it for free on YouTube. This conversation is for F(f)riends of all ages! Please join and share your Light. Contact Jonathan Glass (jglass@cooley.com) for Zoom connection information.
