Honoring Valarie Kaur
 

Civil rights leader, lawyer, award-winning filmmaker, educator, innovator, best-selling author, renowned speaker, Sikh American, mother, woman warrior

Thank you to everyone who attended the See No Stranger event, the 2023 Dare to Understand Awards. It was an amazing way to honor Valarie Kaur for her dedication to revolutionary love, and to celebrate Interfaith Philadelphia’s vital work!

We learned about the ways we can love the other and the opponent, and how we must love ourselves. Valarie Kaur shared inspirational words, and Trina Gary led a meaningful discussion about how we - people of all ages - can put her ideas into practice.

Sincere gratitude to Valarie Kaur for the ways she inspires us daily, and to all of our speakers and presenters, and thank YOU for helping us build a stronger and more understanding future.

Thank You to Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church and Our Sponsors!
