From Chaos to Community: Reclaiming the World House in a Divided Age
From Chaos to Community: Reclaiming the World House in a Divided Age鈥痺ith Stephon Boatwright, PhD, Assistant Professor, Political Science & International Relations.
Dr. Boatwright鈥檚 talk will explore Martin Luther King Jr.鈥檚 vision of the World House as a moral response to the crises of interdependence in an age of renewed nationalism and populism. King foresaw that humanity鈥檚 greatest challenge would not be technological but ethical: learning to live together within a shared global home. Today, as the rhetoric of division grows louder, his warning feels prophetic. The talk examines how King鈥檚 call for cooperation transcends borders and ideologies, urging the creation of systems of belonging that replace exclusion with justice. Drawing connections between King鈥檚 鈥渢riple evils鈥 of racism, materialism, and militarism and the global inequities of our time, Dr. Boatwright highlights how fellowship, not nationalism, remains the foundation for humanity鈥檚 common future.
