02-06-17 Sister Giant – Marianne Williamson
In the words of Mahatma Gandhi, “Politics should be sacred.” Sacred doesn’t necessarily mean religious – it means stemming from the deepest part of ourselves. The search for authenticity, for our deep humanity, should not stop at the door to politics. If anything, it should extend deeply into realms that affect so powerfully the existence of earth’s billions of inhabitants. From how we treat the environment to how we treat each other, our political choices are significant indicators of our moral values and spiritual convictions. At this year’s SISTER GIANT, Bernie Sanders will give the keynote address. Marianne Williamson partners with Derrick Harkins, Senior Vice-President at Union Theological Seminary to SISTER GIANT in Washington DC, at the Marriott Hotel in Arlington, Va. From Feb. 2-4, 2017. The Conference will bring together an illuminating mix of thinkers, gathering to consider the state of our country on both spiritual and political levels. www.sistergiant.com
