Sunday Platform – Ethics and the Theater: On The Exhale

Martin Zimmerman’s play was inspired by the Sandy Hook shootings. Its title is the advice given to marksmen on when to squeeze a trigger. The sole character is a single mother of a second grader. That’s all you need to know. Except, it’s not what you expect.

Notice: Only fully-vaccinated Society members are invited to attend in-person at this time.

Presider: Pat Debrovner

Shared Charity: Harlem Mothers S.A.V.E.

Sunday Platform is our most important and long-standing community event. These gatherings educate, stimulate personal growth, inspire reflection and action, and strengthen our community. Sunday meetings usually begin with music, followed by greetings and a talk given by a Society Leader, member, or guest.  Platforms cover a variety of topics that reflect current events, pressing social issues, and Ethical Culture philosophy. A collection basket is passed and money is shared between the Society and a charity selected for that day.  While contributions are always appreciated, Sunday meetings are free and open to the public.  Each Sunday meeting is followed by a luncheon and social hour.
