Theologian-in-Residence

Liberation Theology + Community Organizing

Rev. Osagyefo Uhuru Sekou serves as our Theologian-in-Residence at Valley & Mountain. In this role, Rev. Sekou creates and facilitates periodic liberation theology book groups; leads a Revolutionary Bible Study on Wednesday nights; and provides trainings in the tactics and theory of Militant Nonviolent Civil Disobedience (militant = disciplined, organized nonviolent action designed to provoke a confrontation with the state). He also offers general convening/pastoral leadership for the V&M community. 

The Collab

The home of V&M in the heart of Hillman City, Seattle

In June 2013, V&M partnered with Community Arts Create to open the Hillman City Collaboratory: a social change incubator.  It is the focal point of our efforts to create a center for creative liberation in our city and it is also where we gather for Celebrations on Sundays.

Located in the heart of Hillman City, a diverse and historic neighborhood in south Seattle, the Collaboratory is currently home to dozens of social change organizations, an art gallery, a learning kitchen, a homeless drop-in center, and a lot more.
