Join us for an evening with Valarie Kaur!
VALARIE KAUR is a renowned civil rights leader, lawyer, award-winning filmmaker, educator, innovator, and best-selling author of SEE NO STRANGER. She leads the Revolutionary Love Project to reclaim love as a force for justice. Valarie burst into American consciousness in the wake of the 2016 election when her Watch Night Service address went viral with 40 million views worldwide. Her question “Is this the darkness of the tomb – or the darkness of the womb?” reframed the political moment and became a mantra for people fighting for change.
Thank you to those who attended the Evening with Jemele Hill event. In a recent discussion of the event, many remarked about these words that were inspiring…. “don’t just be about opening doors, but dismantling rooms”.
Thank you to the members who volunteered at our tent for the Kalamazoo Pride Festival which brings together people of all ages, genders, sexual orientations, and racial identities from Southwest Michigan and beyond to celebrate LGBTQ+ Pride.
The Justice and Diversity team would like to thank the 30 congregation members and friends for participating in the MLK-Latasha Morrison Speaker Zoom Event on MLK Day. Latasha Morrison was not only inspiring but challenged everyone in the audience with her message of Recollection, Repentance, Repair and Reconciliation. Using Biblical references as her base and incorporating many stories, she certainly left much for the attendees to ponder and ultimately move toward action. .
