”We are excited to have a joint keynote address this year because it helps to show the intersectionality between social justice and environmental sustainability,” says Meghann Jarchow, chair of sustainability and environment.

His film, “Transfigurations—Transgressing Gender in the Bible,” is currently moving through film festival process in North America, Europe, and Africa.
