Choosing the Back Pew: Raising Our Consciousness about Racism

By Joan Colleran Hoxsey Dmin

In this little book, we get an intimate seat listening to conversations shared by friends of different races. We hear personal stories of how racism persists in the world today. The author shares her tale as an octogenarian white widow reaching out to her friends of color. We read in these pages of seven key ways that racism is both experienced and can be combated. We are invited to look deeply at the wounds of racism as we cultivate the consciousness that raises our awareness to the ongoing situation. Between these pages, we are introduced to a young girl who is a model of best behavior. She demonstrates the choice of caring as she crosses the color divide. We are invited to do the same.
