Valarie Kaur 2023 Announcement (1).png

"The future is dark. Is this the darkness of the tomb—
or the darkness of the womb?"

A global pioneer and visionary, Valarie Kaur reframes the present moment in history as one of transition and believes each of us has a role in the labor of birthing a new future. Her message has inspired millions of people around the world and ignited a movement to reclaim love as a force for justice. Valarie will offer a keynote on 9/29 and a workshop on 9/30 to draw forth our deepest wisdom to explore how Revolutionary Love can transform our lives — love for others, our opponents, and ourselves. Through her renowned storytelling, teaching, and embodied inquiry, she will show us how to build beloved community, from the inside out.
