White privilege. Black Lives Matter. George Floyd. When it comes to racism in America, many of us feel confused, overwhelmed, angry--and eager to know how to engage in meaningful conversations and actions surrounding such a difficult topic. In Not So Black and White, public school communicator and internationally acclaimed speaker Reggie Dabbs and pastor John Driver team up to offer a hope-filled, convicting, inspiring look at how to be anti-racist in America today.

Through Reggie and John's honest conversations, you will:

• Hear the stories of fellow believers who have found ways to reach across the racial barrier with humility, empathy, and forgiveness
• Understand a simple yet robust history of racism in America and in the church, including its role in systems, policies, and individual actions
• Discover fully biblical yet culturally wise responses to the challenges of racism in yourself and your community
• Come away with fresh thought processes and practical steps for what you can do to think rightly and engage bravely in conversations and actions to end racism
