Next Week at Witherspoon (Mar. 28-April 3)

Posted on by

Nassau is invited to join our siblings at Witherspoon Street Presbyterian Church (WSPC) for worship and study. Find information below for upcoming events, and contact Phyllis Rich for zoom links.

In our charge to “do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly,” Nassau is grateful to partner with our siblings at Witherspoon Presbyterian Church. Ongoing Bending the Moral Arc small groups engage in courageous conversations on race and justice facilitated by members of the Nassau & Witherspoon Partnership Team working in partnership. Those leaders pull from a running resource list to ground discussion, and we wanted to share those resources with you here.

A Perspective on the Life of the Great Presbyterian “Womanist” Theologian, Saturday, March 27 at 1:00 p.m. on Zoom.

For Women’s History Month, Witherspoon Street Presbyterian Church is honoring Katie Cannon (1950-2018), the first African American woman to be ordained in the United Presbyterian Church USA (now PCUSA) in 1974.

Dr. Cannon was a  leading author, pioneer and legend among theologians.  Her writing, research, and teaching were foundational in contributing to the shifting of Reform Christian­ity thought.  Her impeccable scholarship and rigorous study expanded new ways to include African-American religious identity and experience into what she termed “Womanist Theology,” which seeks to escape the male centered views of religion and ethics, and to value the experiences and insights of black women in those areas.  Sushama Austin-Connor, Founding Program Director of the Black Theology and Leadership Institute at Princeton Theological Seminary, will lead the discussion.

2/20/21: Patriotism in Black and White: What does it Mean to be An American?

Posted on by

WSPC Christian Education and Church Life Present a Black History Month Program

Saturday, Feb. 20, 2020 from 1–2 p.m.

Patriotism in Black and White: What does it Mean to be An American?
Dr. Mary McGriff, Professor and WSPC Member, Discussion leader

Racism and Patriotism appear at odds in the United States! The central lesson of the African-American political/social history is that the ideals and  promises of American democracy have not been fully realized for them, and there is cynicism and ambivalence about the meanings and practices of authentic patriotism. How can Black people assume the role of patriots (with pride in their country) while experiencing ongoing systemic racism?  What can we learn from the differing perspectives of historical and contemporary Black leaders?

Pre-Reading (optional)

Black Patriotism: When Love of Country Means Holding It Accountable (5 minute read): https://www.npr.org/2020/07/03/886535795/for-some-black-americans-love-of-country-means-holding-it-accountable.

Please join us for this timely and important discussion! Contact Phyllis Rich (email) for the Zoom link.
