The video of the second day of Quaker Theological Discussion Group presentations for 2024 is now available, on the topic of “Imagining Just Economies: Quaker Approaches to Divestment and the Kin-dom of God.”

Each presenter offered important wisdom and challenge to Friends regarding Friends history, reparations, and how we might live more fully into Quaker values in relation to people and the planet. We are so grateful to all the presenters:

Pamela Haines: Applying our Faith Values to Economics
Mary Watkins: Learning from the Demands and Visions of Black-Led Grassroots Reparations Campaigns 
Lina Blount:  Collective Witness and Interdependence in Dialogue with Individual Piety and Consumerism in Fossil Fuel Divestment
Cherice Harrison-Nelson and St. Clair Allmond, accompanied by Nathan Shroyer: Intraparticularity

We encourage you to share the links to the videos from QTDG 2024 panel 1 and panel 2 with others in your networks. Also, don’t forget to subscribe to Quaker Religious Thought, where many of these presentations will appear as papers in 2025.

Thank you to all the presenters for this year’s QTDG, and to those who attended, listened, and brought insightful questions and conversation.
