SUMMARY:RTL: Costs of Freedom in Dallas County
DESCRIPTION:As people of faith\, we cannot stand aside as the mass incarceration system we so heavily invest in destroys the lives of those we are commanded to love in our many faith traditions. But what can we do? Friends – we have an opportunity in September to make our people safe from Dallas County’s incarceration system. If you want to reverse the tide of locking people away then join us on 8/26 to hear what things (big and small) you can do in the next few weeks to put your faith into action and end mass incarceration in Dallas.

SUMMARY:Road to Liberation Campaign Launch
DESCRIPTION:On August 30\, Faith in Texas will launch our Road to Liberation Campaign to divest from white supremacy and invest in true liberation. We will share our faith-rooted analysis of how policing and mass incarceration have been rooted in the age-old lie that some people are worth less than others – the same lie that has accommodated slavery and jim crow – and how we can free ourselves from its grasp. We’ll offer breakout sessions to explore how white supremacy shows up in our lives and communities\, and how we can take action to disrupt and dismantle it. Finally\, we will take action together to let our community and our leaders know that we will no longer submit to the chains of white supremacy and racist systems. Join us for this galvanizing event as we set off on the Road to Liberation together.
