[Below is a suggested intro when presenting an Eracism Minute]
Good morning,
My name is ________________, here to present an Eracism Minute, a minute of consciousness-raising on behalf of the BUF Black Lives Matter Ministry Action Team. Eracism is defined as the removal from existence of the belief that one race is superior to another.
[After the Eracism Minute, if appropriate]
I'll be downstairs during coffee hour if you'd like to learn more about my experience or the work of the Ministry Team.
The BUF Black Lives Matter Ministry Action Team seeks to nurture the social, spiritual and personal development of congregation members in the exploration of how racism and privilege impact our congregation, our community, and our nation. In particular, we acknowledge the targeted violence which impacts black people disproportionately.
