Transforum: Viewing of "13th"

  • Derwood Bible Church 16011 Chieftain Ave Derwood, MD 20855 United States (map)

We are going to kick-off our Transforums for the fall with a viewing of the award winning documentary, '13th,' by Ava DuVernay. America makes up 5% of the world's population, yet locks up 25% of the world's prisoners. And 40% of U.S. prisoners are black men. '13th' explores the connection between slavery and modern-day mass incarceration in America. What might a gospel-centered response, both individually and corporately, look like to this situation? Please join us as we watch the film together and then interact in a time of discussion. Feel free to visit DuVernay's official site or the film's official Netflix page for more information. Please let us know you're coming via RSVP at the event's Eventbrite page.
