Rev. Kristin Stoneking's keynote at the 2014 Fellowship of Reconciliation Seabeck Conference
Channel: FellowshipUSA
Date: 2014-07-29

Rev. Kristin Stoneking is the twenty-fourth executive director of the Fellowship of Reconciliation. Rev. Stoneking came to FOR following a 14-year stint as executive director of the Cal Aggie Christian Association in Davis, California.

A vocal advocate for the Occupy/Decolonize movement, Kristin also achieved national attention in November 2011 for her role in a dramatic incident at UC Davis with violent overtones. Police officers infamously pepper-sprayed some of the 300 activists who had joined the Occupy Davis protest, dramatically increasing an already tense situation. Kristin successfully mediated between the parties and, when video footage of the situation "went viral" on the Internet, used the opportunity to widely promote the message of disciplined, principled nonviolent action.
