Book Club

Selection: Waking Up White and Finding Myself in the Story of Race by Debby Irving:

For 25 years, Debby Irving sensed inexplicable racial tensions in her personal and professional relationships.  As a colleague and neighbor, she worried about offending people she dearly wanted to befriend.  As an arts administrator, she didn’t understand why her diversity effort lacked traction.  As a teacher, she found her best efforts to reach out to students and families of color left her wondering what she was missing.  Then in 2009, one “aha!” moment launched an adventure of discovery and insight that drastically shifted her worldview and upended her life plan.
