AEU All-Society Platform: The Encampment for Citizenship (Online Only)
July 30, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm
Notice: This platform will be online-only. Due to technical limitations in our temporary Sunday room, we will not be holding an in-person watch party this week.
Since its founding in 1876, the Ethical Culture movement has founded or co-founded several organizations. One of them is The Encampment for Citizenship, a progressive youth leadership program that met for the first time in the summer of 1946.
Today, it has been reinvigorated by alumni determined to offer a new generation an experience similar to one they had as teenagers that changed their lives forever. They became leaders in their chosen fields, always advocating for participatory democracy for everyone.
During this Platform, we will hear from them and recent Encampers about youth activism and intergenerational social justice.

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 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 Humanist philosophy. Each Sunday meeting is followed by a luncheon and social hour.
To watch previous Sunday Platforms, visit our Videos page and YouTube channel.
