In the heart of DC, Starr King graduate and Senior Minister of All Souls Church, Rev. Rob Hardies helped provideΒ a safe space for grassroots organizers to connect and gain a deeper understanding of the challenges we face. Among those making the trip to All Souls were Starr King President Rosemary Bray McNatt, former Ohio State Senator Nina Turner, and MSNBC host/Presidential Chair at Wake Forest University Melissa Harris-Perry.
As inspiring as it was to witnessΒ a movement of such magnitude, we also recognize the need for sustained action. We offer the following resources for those of us looking to make an immediate impact.Β In the meantime, we will continue doing what we do best: educating people for revolutionary religious leadership in society.
Take courage, beloveds, and know we are holding you in our prayers during these extraordinaryΒ times.
