White Men Confessing: A Reckoning on Racism in the Church

Parishes that are predominately white have a particular responsibility to dismantle racism in their communities. Often lurking under the surface, this pernicious “demon” is being exorcised anew often among parish leadership. How might white men, specifically, become models of contrition and transformation within communities resistant to change? What are the costs of doing this challenging work? And what strategies can be employed to unlock new possibilities?

In a conversation moderated by Ron Byrd, the Episcopal Church’s Missioner for Black Ministries, a group of white male clergy share their journeys of self-awareness, confession, and action within their contexts to move towards God’s vision that all are one in Christ.



CEEP Network is organizing a separate conversation with white women clergy, recognizing that the intersection of race and gender means different questions and challenges will come up in that context.
