This 40 Days of Engagement on Anti-Racism is an excellent way to delve deeply into anti-racism work. It will feature new stories daily, with the exception of Sundays. Each day of engagement will creatively move through a time for learning, a faith reflection, and offer some suggested response actions. The individual writings come from diverse writers across the breadth of the United Church, who all share their knowledge, wisdom, insights, and personal reflections.  

These daily reflections will be posted on the 40 Days website. 

A great way to explore the daily content with a wider group of people will be join a 40 Days study group! These organized weekly online study sessions will run between October 16-December 8, and will give everyone a chance to delve even more deeply into the week’s content. There is no cost to attend these sessions, and the groups will be offered at the following times:

Study Groups for Indigenous People

Monday           1-2:30pm
Wednesday     7-8:30pm

Study Groups for Racialized People

Monday           1-2:30pm
Wednesday     7-8:30pm

Study Groups for White People

Tuesday          1-2:30pm
Thursday         7-8:30pm

Pour les francophones 

le mardi de 13h00 à 14h30  heure de l'Est
le jeudi 19h00 - 20h30  heure de l'Est

Why are we meeting in separate groups for these sessions? It is because the learning needs for racialized and Indigenous people are often different from the learning needs of White people. Because of their lived experiences, racialized and Indigenous people likely have different day-to-day realities than those of White peoples.
