In our continuing Conversations on Race: Building Authentic Relationships, we hope you will join us on Sunday, June 14, 3-5 p.m. via Zoom for a virtual presentation and discussion of The Color of Law, designated one of ten finalists on the National Book Awards’ list for the best nonfiction book of 2017.
RICHARD ROTHSTEIN, author of The Color of Law, writes:
“Today’s residential segregation in the North, South, Midwest, and West is not the unintended consequence of individual choices and of otherwise well-meaning law or regulation but of unhidden public policy that explicitly segregated every metropolitan area in the United States.”
MARGARET ROWLETT, J.D., Knoxville native and now practicing attorney in Greensboro, NC, will present and lead our discussion. Ms. Rowlett is a graduate of Emory and Henry College and Duke University where she earned a law degree, as well as a master’s degree in public policy. She has for many years been involved in peace and social concerns and undoing racism through The First Friends Meeting in Greensboro, NC. Ms. Rowlett is also the daughter of Church Street UMC members, Rev. Pete and Ginny Rowlett.
Your presence and participation in this timely and important discussion are welcomed!
