This summer over 50 students, staff and faculty met in book clubs to read “Healing Resistance: A Radically Different Response to Harm.” Now everyone in the Luther Sem Community is invited to join our culminating event, a Q&A Session with the author Kazu Haga!  

We’ll be meeting on Tuesday, September 19 from 2:30-4 p.m. Central Time to hear him answer questions (over Zoom) about the book and about the practice of Kingian Nonviolence. Join in person in the OCC Dining Room or online via Zoom.

You don’t have to have read the book or participated in the book clubs to join! The session will be recorded. Hope to see you there!  Any questions, reach out to lmildahl001@luthersem.edu.

Volunteers need to join a choir on Monday, August 28, 2023 for a commemorative procession and concert curated by G. Phillip Shoultz, III, Associate Artistic Director of VocalEssence. We are looking for 75-100 volunteer singers to join a community choir from around the Twin Cities metro to mark the 60th anniversary of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.

Featuring Jovonta Patton, Joe Davis & the Poetic Diaspora, Threads Dance Project, Thomasina Petrus, and rising local spoken word artist Eshay Brantley, the coalition of choirs will join these artists in their music and additional musical numbers as we remember the past, ground ourselves in the present, and look to the future.
