LA CROSSE, Wis. (WXOW) - The discussion of racial inequity is one of the most important topics right now around the world, in the U.S., and in our community.
Local churches like Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, located in La Crescent, hosts Zoom meetings and small in-person groups, discussing author Debby Irving’s book, ‘Waking Up White.’ The book discusses the hard-hitting topic of ‘white privilege’ and how to dismantle systemic racism.
Pastor Kent Johnson at Prince of Peace, tells News 19 that as a white man, the book was informative, challenging, and enlightening all in one, after reading and discussing Irving’s book.
