Join the community to hear Dr. Lerone Martin speak on what shapes our society.
Join us for a compelling evening with Dr. Lerone Martin, Director of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Research and Education Institute at Stanford University, as part of the Kaleidoscope Speaker Series. This event will take place at the Renaissance Theatre, and doors open at 5:30 PM. Get your tickets at rentickets.org
A nationally respected voice on religion, race, and American politics, Dr. Martin examines the historical and present-day forces that shape our society. His work explores how institutions—not just individuals—perpetuate inequality, and how a deeper understanding of these systems can lead to real change. An award-winning educator and public scholar, Dr. Martin’s lectures are known for encouraging thoughtful, civil dialogue around the most pressing issues of our time. His research and teaching challenge audiences to look beyond blame and examine the broader mechanisms that sustain division and injustice.
Whether you’re a student of history, an engaged citizen, or someone seeking tools to navigate today’s social climate, this is an evening you won’t want to miss.
