Bridging the Rivers of Difference: A Proclamation of Unity in Resistance
Dr. Catherine Meeks, Founder of Turquoise & Lavender, outlines a collaborative approach to combating systemic racism.

Each week, guest speakers from a variety of backgrounds and disciplines join the Reverend Peter Thompson and other St. Bart's clergy for deep and insightful conversations about topics that matter to our lives as responsible citizens and people of faith. Speakers in recent years have included winners of the Tony Award, the Emmy Award, the MacArthur Fellowship, and the Pulitzer Prize, professors from prominent universities like Yale, Harvard, Princeton, and Columbia, and journalists from New York, The New Yorker, and The Atlantic.
As she prepares to leave for San Francisco, The Reverend Canon Stephanie Spellers shares some of the lessons she has learned over her eight years at St. Bart's.
Dr. Charlotte Healy, St. Bart’s parishioner and co-curator of the exhibition Willem de Kooning Drawing (currently on view at the Art Institute of Chicago), gives an overview of the exhibition and explores de Kooning’s provocative engagement with the sacred.
