Evening Opening Plenary
Facilitator- Marcos Lewis
“Walking Together on the Path Towards Race Unity and Oneness – Part II,” portrays how, in the most unassuming settings, heroic efforts are being made to heal racial prejudice, illustrating the manner in which families and community members can engage in neighborhood devotionals, study circles, children’s classes and junior youth groups to develop new capacities, attitudes and habits to replace outworn modes of thinking, particularly those founded on the falsehood that one group or population is superior to another.

Members of a study circle discuss racial injustice from their personal experience, and how the act of coming together in regular meetings provides a healing framework to safely and supportively examine the forces unleashed in today’s world. Members will also discuss how the study circle concept accelerates racial unity on a personal level. A primary purpose of the study circle is to learn how the vision of Baha’u’llah inspires hope for the future.
