For the 2022 King Holiday, the World House Project at the Center on Democracy, Development and the Rule of Law within Stanford University's Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies hosted a free, four-day virtual film festival/webinar from the evening of Jan. 14 through Jan. 17, 2022. This virtual event featured over 40 documentaries, musical performances, interviews and panel discussions that spoke to Dr. King's still unanswered question: Where Do We Go From Here: Chaos or Community?

The webinar consisted of daily Zoom meetings with the World House Project director Dr. Clayborne Carson and his team, who discussed a wide range of topics, from the history of the civil rights movement to the legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr., and the African American freedom struggles.

The films and performances covered a variety of themes, from the history of the civil rights and anti-apartheid movements to James Baldwin and Martin Luther King's global visions.
