Viterbo University’s Breaking Barriers Diversity Club and the Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration will welcome Chevara Orrin, diversity and inclusion practitioner, to present “A Movement Not A Moment: 21st Century Activism” on Tuesday, Feb. 23 at 7 p.m. via Zoom.
Orrin will discuss the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. while sharing stories from her father, Rev. James Luther Bevel, a key civil rights figure who was the architect of several pivotal campaigns in the 1960s.
Orrin is a published author, social justice activist, independent filmmaker, and public speaker. She is also a survivor of childhood poverty, incest, teenage pregnancy and domestic violence.
Her personal journey of tragedy and triumph has inspired Orrin to use her experiences and voice as a catalyst to ignite social transformation.
