Show Notes

This afternoon lecture was sponsored by St. David’s Beloved Community.

Rob Corcoran will discuss his book which chronicles his work for racial justice in Richmond, VA and around the world. Rob is an Episcopalian who moved to Austin last year. In Richmond, VA he worked with St. Paul’s Episcopal Church and many public institutions to modernize the culture of the city. St. Paul’s Episcopal Church is a large downtown church that existed before the Civil War. It was once known as the Cathedral of the Confederacy. He is leading our Beloved Community committee in creating programs for racial healing and reconciliation here at St. David’s. Rob will discuss the process of racial reconciliation that has been successful in his career. It features small groups called dialogue circles where each person has the opportunity to tell their story and their feelings in a safe, non-judgmental setting.
