Humanity is dynamic, with the capacity to live together in just, humane, equitable and peaceful ways far more than we are currently demonstrating. The 2024 Beloved Community Global Summit will challenge those who join across the globe to explore that capacity, and to think higher, love deeper, and commit to the multi-faceted work of creating the Beloved Community. This year, the challenge will be lifted in conjunction with exploring the 2024 King Holiday Observance theme, It Starts with Me: Shifting the Cultural Climate Through the Study and Practice of Kingian Nonviolence.

The 2024 Summit will include panel discussions, interviews, 10–15-minute Summit talks, and innovative video presentations, all focused on examining and arriving at solutions about how we can shift the cultural climate in various areas of society. Guest influencers, artists, civic leaders, activists, and concerned global community members will discuss and share action steps for shifting individually and internally, collectively and civically, and relationally and restoratively.

Registration for both days is required to receive supplementary materials and fully participate in the Summit.
