  2. Regather, greet.
  3. Practice Centering Prayer. 
  4. View Videos for Session 9: found below. Includes video by Dr. Robin DiAngelo, produced for the General Commission on Religion and Race. Discuss and reflect upon what arises within each person. If time permits, also view video featuring Dr. Ibram X Kendi below as well.
