Racism talks planned by Mansfield church group

Wicked Local MANSFIELD – A group of volunteers at St Mary’s Church in Mansfield will offer opportunities to discuss and address racism in the coming year.

It began organizing last June after George Floyd was killed by Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin and in response other police violence against Black people, Committee member Lesley Roy said. Keeping the conversation going “We wanted to be intentional in talking about what was happening in the world,” said Roy, a Mansfield resident. “It’s hard to believe anybody would be able not to talk about what was going on.”

Last fall, a Portland archbishop led a procession into a public park, where he conducted a Latin exorcism to dispel the evil spirits left by racial justice activists. The very same day, a San Francisco archbishop performed a similar rite at the site of a felled statue of Father Junipero Serra, an eighteenth-century Spanish friar whose missionaries forced Indigenous people to convert to

A year after the murder of George Floyd, what has changed?

Photo on Unsplash by Tito Texidor III. One year ago, the murder of George Floyd, captured on video and shared around the world, set off a summer of protests with people demanding change in how police treat Black Americans. Following the protests, leaders in businesses, politics and religion promised change: that we would listen more carefully to the lived experiences of Black Americans and do more to ensure that all people are treated with dignity and respect. A year later, what has changed? As we begin to move on from pandemic and re-enter the real world, are we leaving this issue too fast?
