THE CLIMATE OF RELATIONSHIPS & INTERSECTIONALITY
October 4, 2021 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm
THE CLIMATE OF RELATIONSHIPS & INTERSECTIONALITY Morgan Curtis, Climate Activist, HDS Student, MDiv ’24; Brontë Velez, Black-latinx transdisciplinary artist
Morgan Curtis and Brontê Velez will be discussing the intersectionality of race, class, gender, and climate collapse and how seeing the world whole through the lens of relationships creates communities of care rather than communities of conflict. They will discuss what reparations might look like on behalf of racial justice and justice for the Earth; and why it is critical to find an intergenerational dialogue, diverse and dynamic that calls for a global paradigm shift. With urgent, contemplative and imaginative voices, Curtis and Velez are women of consequence and action who walk their talk in the name of radical evolutionary change.

Terry Tempest Williams (author and Harvard Divinity School writer-in-residence), Charles M. Stang (director of the Center for the Study of World Religions at Harvard Divinity School), and Dr. Sam Myers (Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health principal research scientist and Planetary Health Alliance director) have launched The Constellation Project. The Constellation Project — a collaboration between the Harvard Divinity School, the Planetary Health Alliance, and the Center for the Study of World Religions—explores the spiritual crisis that underlies the ecological and public health crises associated with destruction of Earth’s natural systems. How do we share news stories about our relationship to each other and the natural world that could help set us on a different path? The Constellation Project aims to feature faith leaders bringing science into their sermons; scientists giving ‘reverence for life’ alongside their analyses; and scholars and students finding a place for their spiritual life.
This series is a Constellation Project in partnership with the Center of the Study of World Religions, Religion & Public Life, and The Planetary Health Alliance. Brian Kirbis of Theasophia Teas will open each conversation with Tea. Each conversation will begin at 7:00 p.m. EST and end at 8:30 p.m. virtually conducted by Terry Tempest Williams, writer-in-residence at the Harvard Divinity School.
