RACIAL JUSTICE ADVOCACY GROUP (RJAG)
“Do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with your God.”
(Micah 6:8)
Antiracism work is a life-long commitment and we invite you on this journey. Using a biblical perspective,
we make confronting injustice a priority at Trinity. RJAG meets via Zoom on the second Thursday of
each month at 7:00pm. Contact Sabine Won or Deborah Kemper for more information. Join us as we
strive to honor Jesus’ commandments in Micah 6:8!
STATEMENT ON SYSTEMIC RACISM
In 2022, the Presbytery of San Francisco (PSF) posted a
Statement Confronting Systemic Racism promising “to do all in
our power to change ourselves, our communities, our churches,
and our Presbytery to liberate ourselves from our own racism and
work towards the full expression and celebration of all peoples for
their uniqueness and diversity, each made in the image of God.”
ANTIRACISM POLICY
In 2016, the Presbyterian Church, PC(USA), published their antiracism
policy called Facing Racism: A Vision of the Intercultural Community.
This document establishes that “because of our biblical understanding of who God is and what God intends for humanity, the PC(USA) must stand against, speak against, and work against racism. Antiracist effort is not optional for Christians. It is an essential aspect of Christian discipleship, without which we fail to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ.
MIGUEL MENDEZ PEACE & JUSTICE SPEAKER Series
Education is a critical part of our faith journey which is why
we host speakers and events through a fund named in honor of
late Trinity member, Miguel Mendez, who was Stanford Law
School’s first latino professor and an advocate of justice. Read more about the speakers and events that helped shape us.
EDUCATION
One of our goals is to listen and learn from people of color and trusted Christian scholars, so we can discern how God is calling us to respond to injustice. Movies help us understand the insidious roots of white supremacy and how important it is to dismantle its legacy. Books educate us on the harmful realities of this world and show us how to turn the tide on systemic racism. Read more about resources that have inspired us.
