We Can Redeem Martin Luther King’s Prophetic Vision! Under this year’s theme, CHAOS OR COMMUNITY, The Conversation 253, in partnership with community groups and organizations, including Associated Ministries , Evergreen Tacoma , Tacoma DSA , and The Black Panther Party of WA , calls on our beloved community to resist the chaos of our current crises by bringing resolve, resources, and renewed commitment to our twin tasks: sustaining The Beloved Community wherever it manifests and expanding its reach to include the vulnerable, the beleaguered, the excluded, the forgotten.
This intergenerational, multi-ethnic, and participatory event will feature uplifting performances by local artists and musicians, blessings and libations from spiritual leaders, and the presentation of the 2025 Social Justice Awards. Attendees will also learn from local groups providing innovative approaches to creating resilient and diverse communities grounded in equity and justice.
