Tahil Sharma: Keeping the Peace or Achieving It: What is the future of the interfaith movement?
RSVP AT BOTTOM OF PAGE
Event Description:
Join the conversation with our speaker:
Tahil Sharma (he/they) has been working at the intersection of interfaith cooperation and justice for over 10 years, working locally and internationally to explore the new possibilities of multifaith engagement and action for a better world.
Leave safety behind. Put your body on the line. Stand before the people you fear and speak your mind – even if your voice shakes. When you least expect it, someone may actually listen to what you have to say. Well-aimed slingshots can topple giants. And do your homework.
-- Maggie Kuhn, founder of the Gray Panthers

Co-sponsors:
At Interfaith Communities United for Justice and Peace, we understand that grief, sorrow, and words are not enough to make change. We are called to work towards dialogue and solutions that affirm the primary calling of our organization - Religious Communities MUST Stop Blessing War and Violence.
Long before the tragic events of October 7th of last year, Interfaith Communities United for Justice and Peace has been shining a light on the Palestinian Nakba (catastrophe), and we will continue to host live events as well as streamed forums to counter the oppression of fact-based and compassionate voices on campuses and in the media.
Your financial support of our mission will help us create more in-person events, fund costs like printing of materials and event support, and will keep us going in our mission to seek an alternative to the fear-mongering and vengefulness sweeping much of our nation.
Thank you for being a partner in our fight for inclusion, equity and justice for all — will you join us in our future work by making a special gift to ICUJP today?
Please join us in our ongoing work to open doors with dialogue and compassion, and to make change with diligence, creativity, and open hearts and minds.
