Over the decades, the series has featured thought leaders, artists, and activists. It continues to be one of the longest-running lecture series in the state of California.<\/p>\n<p>The 2025 Earl Lectures open on Friday with the PSR Distinguished Alumnx Banquet, followed by a full day of lectures and breakout sessions on Saturday. Featured speakers include <b>Luis Argueta<\/b>, Guatemalan filmmaker and human rights advocate; <b>Cynthia T. Buiza<\/b>, former Executive Director of the California Immigrant Policy Center; and <b>Jos\u00e9 Luis Marantes<\/b>, co-founder of United We Dream Network.<\/p>\n<p>In a time of heightened political tension around immigration, <b>PSR President Rev. Dr. David V\u00e1squez-Levy<\/b> emphasized the urgency of this year&#8217;s theme:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<i>Migration is not just a political issue; it is a deeply human story. In this tumultuous time, we must center the lived experiences of migrants and challenge the narratives that dehumanize them. The Earl Lectures offer a space to listen, learn, and act in solidarity.<\/i>&#8220;<\/p>\n<p>The weekend concludes with President V\u00e1squez-Levy preaching at First Congregational Church of Berkeley on Sunday, October 19.<\/p>\n<p>Tickets are available now, with early bird pricing through September 12th.
