Louisville Seminary | Caldwell Chapel | lpts.edu/watchlive

Presented by the 2023 Grawemeyer Award in Religion winner:

Kelly Brown Douglas

Kelly Brown Douglas, dean of Union Theological Seminary’s Episcopal Divinity School in New York City and a canon theologian at Washington Cathedral, is one of the first Black female Episcopal priests in the United States and the first Black person to head an Episcopal Church-affiliated educational institution. 

Douglas will speak on her award-winning book, “Resurrection Hope: A Future Where Black Lives Matter." She wrote the book in response to her son asking, "How do we really know God cares when Black people are still getting killed?" and seeing Black Lives Matter protests erupt nationwide after George Floyd’s death.

Join the lecture in person or virtually at lpts.edu/watchlive

About The Grawemeyer Award in Religion

The Grawemeyer Award in Religion is made possible by the creative generosity of the late H. Charles Grawemeyer. Louisville Seminary, jointly with the University of Louisville, awards the $100,000 prize to honor and publicize creative and significant insights into the relationship between human beings and the divine. The award also recognizes ways in which this relationship may inspire or empower human beings to attain wholeness, integrity, or meaning, either individually or in community.
