How does Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s hopeful, reconciling and redemptive leadership – as exhibited in his acclaimed Letter from Birmingham Jail, written in 1963 – reverberate today?
Tonight (Tuesday), all are invited to a free special presentation, “Letter from Birmingham Jail,†presented by Scott Finnie, PhD, a King scholar and faculty member in Eastern Washington University’s Africana Education Program and Department of History since 1992. The event is set from 6:30 to 8 p.m. in Hoover 105.
Finnie’s visit is the keynote address of the 2022 John Woolman Peacemaking Forum. The presentation will focus on how King’s leadership changed the Civil Rights Movement and how his peacemaking principles still apply to our world today.
Preceding the talk will be a Steinfeldt Peace Scholars Symposium from 6 to 6:30 p.m. in the Hoover lobby, where current upperclass students committed to peace studies will exhibit their projects.
The event is being sponsored by George Fox’s Center for Peace and Justice, which is also providing refreshments.

The Cultural Enterprise invites the entire campus community to a Forum on Faith and Sexuality today (Monday) and tomorrow in Canyon Commons.
The two-day event features three widely acclaimed authors: Wesley Hill, Eve Tushnet and Nancy Pearcey. Our hope is to provide stimulus for thoughtful dialogue with pressing questions of human sexuality and Christian faith through the testimony and ideas of these presenters.

Here is the schedule:
- Monday, March 14, 7 p.m.: Wesley Hill
- Tuesday, March 15, 1:30 p.m.: Eve Tushnet
- Tuesday, March 15, 7 p.m.: Nancy Pearcey, followed by panel featuring all three speakers
