Jan 14 | Beloved Community- Spoken Word Performance Inspired by Writings of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Thursday, January 14 | 2:30 – 3pm

Spoken word artist and creative, Joseph Green, returns to perform his original works as we look to Dr. King’s vision and philosophy of a ‘Beloved Community.’

Joseph LMS Green, is a spoken word artist, educator, and motivational speaker with over a decade of work in youth spaces discussing his life, poetry art and social justice. He believes that once you recognize the transformative power of reflecting on your own grit, mistakes, darkness, and light -- you build an inner strength that no one can take away from you. He enjoys driving both youth and adults towards self-forgiveness, redemption, and the role of love.
