SUMMARY:MLK Convocation Keynote: Tuning in to Our Communities: Improving Our Collective Sensibilities of Humility\, Care and Relationality
DESCRIPTION:Tuning in to Our Communities: Improving Our Collective Sensibilities of Humility\, Care and Relationality with Bindu Panikkar\, PhD\, Associate Professor\, Rubenstein School of Environment & Natural Resources\, University of Vermont \nHow do we strengthen our relational capabilities centered in care\, humility\, and collective wellbeing? The word humility comes from the Latin root—humus\, earth\, soil\, ground. Humility means being grounded\, being of the earth\, it means an awareness of our place within a larger world. Practicing humility requires recognizing our limitations\, acknowledging our interdependence\, and valuing the contributions and knowledge of others. It is also the willingness to be changed through relational encounters. Humility in relations grounds us\, allowing care\, attentiveness and reciprocity to circulate\, and serves as a powerful antidote to domination\, extraction\, and hierarchy. \nIn this talk\, Dr. Panikkar makes the case that tuning in to our communities requires understanding what divides us and what erodes our collective capabilities of care\, relationality\, and humility. To guard against the theft of relationality\, we must adopt attunement of care\, listening\, repair\, reciprocity\, and attentiveness as practice to rebuild our relational capacities necessary for collective wellbeing in a fractured world.

SUMMARY:Planting New Seeds: the Journey of the Black Farmer from Sharecropping to Black Farmer Prosperity
DESCRIPTION:Planting New Seeds: the Journey of the Black Farmer from Sharecropping to Black Farmer Prosperity with Dale Bell\, Associate Programs Director\, Comprehensive Community Development\, Edmundite Missions \nThis presentation traces the transformation of Black farmers from the era of sharecropping – where many worked land they did not own under exploitative conditions – to the modern pursuit of land ownership\, agricultural independence\, and economic stability. Grounded in the teachings of Dr. King and the work of the Edmundite Missions\, it examines the challenges Black farmers have historically faced\, including limited access to resources\, discriminatory lending practices\, and generational barriers to ownership. Despite these obstacles\, the narrative emphasizes the resilience\, skill\, and determination of Black agricultural communities as they reclaim their agricultural legacy. New initiatives\, including impact grants\, heirs property workshops\, entrepreneurship training and community programs\, are helping to support and empower Black farmers by expanding access to equipment\, education\, capital\, and land. Through these efforts\, Black farmers are planting new seeds of opportunity – transforming historical hardship into modern prosperity and building a stronger\, more equitable future in agriculture.

SUMMARY:From Chaos to Community: Reclaiming the World House in a Divided Age
DESCRIPTION:From Chaos to Community: Reclaiming the World House in a Divided Age with Stephon Boatwright\, PhD\, Assistant Professor\, Political Science & International Relations. \nDr. Boatwright’s talk will explore Martin Luther King Jr.’s vision of the World House as a moral response to the crises of interdependence in an age of renewed nationalism and populism. King foresaw that humanity’s greatest challenge would not be technological but ethical: learning to live together within a shared global home. Today\, as the rhetoric of division grows louder\, his warning feels prophetic. The talk examines how King’s call for cooperation transcends borders and ideologies\, urging the creation of systems of belonging that replace exclusion with justice. Drawing connections between King’s “triple evils” of racism\, materialism\, and militarism and the global inequities of our time\, Dr. Boatwright highlights how fellowship\, not nationalism\, remains the foundation for humanity’s common future.

SUMMARY:Home Improvement: Building a House for All People in an Environment That Can Sustain All Life
DESCRIPTION:Home Improvement: Building a House for All People in an Environment That Can Sustain All Life with Fr. David Theroux\, SSE\, Vice President\, Edmundite Mission \nDr. King’s image of a “world house” addresses the need to live with each other in nonviolence so that all may thrive\, a world in which the rich care for the poor and the common good of all is valued above the good of the individual or tribe alone\, as opposed to warring with each other such that mutual annihilation takes place. Pope Francis imagines the common good of all and the thriving of all peoples in terms of an environment that can sustain humanity\, providing for humanity a home in which all can live with equal access to the world’s goods. However\, care for the environment is what will provide for all humanity a common home where all can thrive. For Pope Francis\, how we care for the environment demonstrates our care for all people\, rich and poor alike.

SUMMARY:From Chaos to Community: Growing the Vision\, Skill\, and Courage to Care for Our Common Home
DESCRIPTION:From Chaos to Community: Growing the Vision\, Skill\, and Courage to Care for Our Common Home with Kristyn Achilich\, M.S.\, M.Ed.\, Senior Instructor of Education and Director\, Leahy Institute for the Environment \nDrawing from Dr. Martin Luther King\, Jr.’s call to choose “community over chaos” in The World House and Pope Francis’s invitation in Laudato Si’ to care for our common home\, this talk explores how interdependence can become our greatest strength. This presentation invites us to move beyond fear and fragmentation toward collective action—developing the vision\, skills\, and courage to live together justly and sustainably in a world that demands both. Through the work of the Patrick & Marcelle Leahy Institute for the Environment\, Achilich models how vision can become practice\, inviting us all to explore and embrace our shared interdependence.

SUMMARY:Beyond Laudato Si': Ecology\, Theology\, and Everyday Life\, a Lecture by Dr. Christiana Zenner\, PhD\, of Fordham University
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Christiana Zenner\, PhD\, Associate Professor of Theology\, Science\, and Ethics at Fordham University will deliver a lecture on Laudato Si’ on the tenth anniversary year of the publication. Laudato Si’ is Pope Francis’s landmark encyclical that calls both the Catholic Church and the world to an “integral ecology\,” linking care for creation with justice for the poor and urging ecological conversion as a moral and spiritual responsibility for all. Dr. Zenner’s remarks will convey how Laudato Si’ has influenced the contemporary linking of the cry of the Earth and the cry of the poor into one vision of justice.

Ms. Mouliert was an invited speaker for Saint Michael’s 33rd MLK Jr. Convocation Day of Celebration\, but was unable to attend. We are thrilled to have her come and present her personal story and the I AM VERMONT TOO initiative.  \nFor over 35 years Sha’an has been a consultant\, community organizer\, educator\, artist and co-founded the African American Alliance of the Northeast Kingdom\, a grassroots organization committed to racial justice.  She initiated and chaired the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom’s (WILPF)\, building the Beloved Community Committee and attended the U.N World Conference Against Racism in Durban South Africa as a delegate.  For several years\, Sha’an was a core trainer for Theater of the Oppressed Laboratory at the Brecht Forum in New York City.   In 2015\, she received Lyndon State College’s Presidential Medal of Distinction of her work in the community; in 2021\, the Rutland NAACP honored her with a Lifetime Achievement Award and last year she received Burlington’s Racial Equity Inclusion and Belonging Juneteenth Innovator Award. She has led conflict resolution\, human potential\, creative expression\, racial justice & equity\, and community organizing workshops nationally and internationally. \nSha’an is the coordinator and photographer of the I Am Vermont Too photo-story exhibit\, a project of The Root Social Justice Center\, as well as\, producer and host for the I Am Vermont Too YouTube program. I Am Vermont Too is a medium for Black\, Indigenous\, and People of Color to tell their stories and share how microaggressions have a significant impact in their lives. Until recently\, she was co-coordinator for Who Farms? a UVM Extension Service Center for Sustainable Agriculture oral history project which produced a comic\, 5 videos and a teacher’s resource guide.  Sha’an facilitates Racial Literacy a Healing Practice trainings throughout Vermont and is the equity and inclusion consultant for Discover St. Johnsbury where she resides. Sha’an presents and shares her story and passion throughout Vermont as an advocate of the formation of the Beloved Community. Her photographic exhibit is currently being displayed at the Montpelier State House until March 4th. \nWe hope you will consider making room in your schedule for this wonderful opportunity to hear from a Vermonter with a unique perspective we can all benefit from.

SUMMARY:Sending Sisterhood: Building Benevolent Beloved Communities through the United States Postal System
DESCRIPTION:Sending Sisterhood: Building Benevolent Beloved Communities through the United States Postal System \nTuesday\, January 21\n2:45 to 3:50 p.m.\nRoy Room\, Dion Family Student Center \nSending Sisterhood: Building Benevolent Beloved Communities through the United States Postal System with Pamela N. Walker\, PhD\, Assistant Professor of History\, University of Vermont   \nDr. Walker’s talk will discuss the new yet hidden in plain sight story of women’s social movement participation during the 1960s through the Mississippi Box Project. The project unfolded through the U.S. postal service\, an overlooked government service that was a contentious site in the battle for civil rights. The project allowed ordinary Black women in Mississippi and white women in New England to forge unique relationships and participate in the Civil Rights Movement through the exchange of food\, clothing\, medicine\, letters\, and movement information. By the end of the decade\, more than six thousand individuals traded goods and letters through the postal system across the Mason-Dixon. Creating their own imperfect beloved communities through the postal service – most without ever meeting in person – Black and white women worked together to literally and figuratively feed the Civil Rights Movement.
