This interfaith table-talk-style event is a part of GVSU's Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. Commemoration Week. Together, we will explore the spiritual frameworks for nonviolent resistance that influenced or were influenced by the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. Throughout the event, we will see the threads shared among figures such as Mahatma Gandhi, Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel, and Venerable Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh.
We call this a "Table Talk" style event, as it favors interpersonal connection and storytelling alongside the wisdom provided by our panelists. The evening will toggle between a moderated panel discussion, Q&A, and small-group table discussions over a shared meal here at our downtown Grand Rapids Health Campus.
Dinner will be provided. This event is free, but registration is required.
