Anti-Racism Training on Zoom: Be Anti Racist

This is what past participants have had to say:
“There is so much we covered, and the depth of the historical content is invaluable. My mind and perspective changed.” “We all have room to learn and grow when it comes to racial justice.” “This course is the one that I am going to recommend to my Bishop as the one that should be used for those in the ordination track.” 

TRENTON, N.J., March 24, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The Diocese of New Jersey’s Anti-Racism Ministry invites you to enroll in 20 hours of Anti-Racism Training streamed to your computer, tablet or mobile phone. This training takes an historical approach to help participants understand systemic racism and empower them to confront and organize against racism, inequality, and injustice.
