SUMMARY:Elon Musk\, Oligarchy\, and Climate Justice
DESCRIPTION:Over and over again\, the Bible tells of prophets who confronted rulers and the rich with an eye toward justice. Today\, the ultra-rich hold enormous political power in the United States\, and the implications are many\, especially when it comes to the pursuit of climate justice. As the world’s richest man and as someone once hailed as a climate savior\, Elon Musk has told the President that “we don’t need to rush” to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. As people of faith\, what are we to make of this situation in which a small number of wealthy individuals have a tremendous influence over the future well-being of humanity and all of God’s creation? More importantly\, what are we to do? The following panelists will help us address these questions: \n-Edie Rasell\, author of “The Way of Abundance: Economic Justice in Scripture and Society”\n-KeShaun Pearson\, Executive Director of Memphis Community Against Pollution\n-Joseph Geevarghese\, Executive Director of Our Revolution \nEven if you cannot make the webinar at its scheduled time\, still sign-up\, and we will send you a link to a recording of it. \nThis monthly installment of Creation Justice Webinars is co-hosted by the Rev. Dr. Brooks Berndt who serves as the Minister of Environmental Justice for the United Church of Christ and the Rev. Michael Malcom who serves as the Executive Director for Alabama Interfaith Power & Light and the People’s Justice Council.

SUMMARY:What's Next Rooted in Faith and Justice: A Vision of Liberation with Jonathan Kuttab
DESCRIPTION:For decades\, Palestinians have sought freedom and justice\, including recognition of their rights and self-determination. Their struggle is at the heart of Palestinian Liberation Theology\, developed in the late 1980s by Palestinian Christians\, and set forth in the Rev. Dr. Naim Ateek’s groundbreaking book\, Justice and Only Justice. Jonathan Kuttab was among those Palestinian Christians whose discussions led to the emergence of this paradigm. Mr. Kuttab\, a Palestinian Christian and a lawyer\, is also a co-founder of Al-Haq\, the first Palestinian human rights organization. Join us in this webinar to hear Mr. Kuttab speak about the genesis and development of Palestinian Liberation Theology and the founding of the Sabeel Ecumenical Liberation Theology Center; and efforts to advocate for and defend the human rights of Palestinians. Mr. Kuttab will speak about liberation from theological and political-legal perspectives\, including an alternative vision to a two-state solution. He will also share reflections on the genocide and war of the past 15 months.
