Recorded in January 24, 2025.
Built upon four blog posts from Joerg, Aaron, Gabby, and George, this event will explore how faith and justice intersect to create pathways for collective liberation.
At the heart of this conversation is the belief that mourning, grief, and collective suffering can be powerful tools for social change. Rooted in the understanding that justice is not just a personal endeavor but a communal one, we will explore how faith traditions and movements for justice can guide us in building solidarity economies, challenging oppressive structures, and transforming our communities for the better.
The intersection of faith and justice is more than just an academic question—it is the living practice of our communities, rooted in our collective action for a better world. This event is about creating spaces where faith and justice intertwine, allowing us to move from personal loss to collective action.
Mourning, in this context, is not just an individual experience; it is a shared process that can lead us to deeper solidarity, as we recognize our common struggles and build power together. This event offers a vision of faith that is active, engaged, and committed to the pursuit of justice for all, challenging us to rethink what true liberation can look like when it is rooted in faith, community, and collective struggle.
