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.

SUMMARY:What Does it Mean to be a Vermonter?
DESCRIPTION:What Does it Mean to be a Vermonter?  \nThursday\, March 6\, at 1:45 p.m.\nRoy Room\, Dion Family Student Center \nThe Presidential Committee for the Martin Luther King Jr. 2025 Convocation and the Institute for Equity and Justice invite everyone to welcome Sha’an Mouliert to Saint Michael’s campus on March 6th\, at 1:45 in the Roy Room. 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. For questions and inquiries please contact Omara Rivera-Vázquez (oriveravazqu@smcvt.edu) or Vernita Weller (vweller@smcvt.edu). This is an UpLift event. Refreshments will be provided.

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.

SUMMARY:Annual Saint Edmund Lecture Sponsored by the Edmundite Center for Faith and Culture
DESCRIPTION:Annual Saint Edmund Lecture \nSponsored by the Edmundite Center for Faith and Culture \nThursday\, November 14\, at 4:30 p.m.\nRoy Room\, Dion Student Center \nDr. Charles Briggs\, PhD\, a professor of medieval history in the Department of History at the University of Vermont\, will deliver the 2024 Annual Saint Edmund Lecture on Thursday\, November 14\, 2024\, at 4:30 p.m. in the Roy Event Center in the Dion Family Student Center (third floor). The title of the presentation is: “A Question of Counsel: Edmund of Abingdon’s Speculum religiosorum and Medieval ‘Mirror’ Literature.” \nAfter growing up in New York\, Dr. Briggs majored in history at Grinnell College in Iowa\, before going on to receive his M.Litt. from the University of Edinburgh in Scotland and Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (1993). After a decade and a half of teaching and administration at Georgia Southern University\, where he was Professor of History\, Briggs returned to the more amenable climes and landscape of the Northeast. A specialist in the intellectual and cultural history of Europe in the thirteenth through early sixteenth centuries\, he teaches courses in late medieval and early modern European history\, global history\, historical methods\, and the history of the book. \nSaint Edmund of Abingdon is the patron of the Society of Saint Edmund\, the founding religious community of priests and brothers who established Saint Michael’s College. The Annual Saint Edmund Lecture honors Saint Edmund not only as the patron of the Edmundite but more specifically for his major work\, Speculum religiosorum (The Mirror of Religious)\, which is a significant writing by Saint Edmund of Abingdon\, who was Archbishop of Canterbury in the early 13th century. Written around 1213-1214\, this text serves as a spiritual guide for religious life\, combining catechetical material with contemplative practices. The work draws on the teachings of early Christian authorities like Augustine and Gregory\, as well as mystical writers such as Bernard of Clairvaux. It was originally composed in Latin and later translated into Anglo-Norman French and Middle English\, reflecting its widespread influence and appeal.
