Dearly loved friends,
The very first WINTER Tennessee Baha'i School will be held on February 14-16, 2020 (Presidents' Day weeknd) at the DuBose Conference Center in Monteagle, TN. Mark your calendar for this first, ever TBS winter school.
The curriculum will focus on the Writings of Shoghi Effendi* and especially on his guidance regarding Racial Unity and the Elimination of Prejudice. More details will be provided in the days and weeks ahead.
In the meanwhile, here are some of Shoghi Effendi's thoughts on the subject:
As to racial prejudice, the corrosion of which, for well-nigh a century, has bitten into the fiber, and attacked the whole social structure of American society, it should be regarded as constituting the most vital and challenging issue confronting the Baha’i community at the present stage of its evolution. The ceaseless exertions which this issue of paramount importance calls for, the sacrifices it must impose, the care and vigilance it demands, the moral courage and fortitude it requires, the tact and sympathy it necessitates, invest this problem … with an urgency and importance that cannot be overestimated.
–The Advent of Divine Justice, pp. 33-34 (December 1938)
Along with our individual efforts, family and community are important contributors to the work of building a new civilization; a world society built upon fairness, justice and equality. We urge you to include your family and friends in TBS 2020.
With loving Baha'i regards,
Tennessee Bahá'í School Committee
