SUMMARY:Music Before 1800: 'Letters to a Young Poet: Ravel & Rilke'
DESCRIPTION:Featuring the Diderot String Quartet! \nThe period music movement has now extended well into the early 20th century\, as intrepid groups re-examine the late world of gut strings. This intimate union of Ravel and Rilke invites us into the Paris of 1903\, when two masterpieces were written just miles away at the same moment of La Belle Époque. \nRainer Maria Rilke’s famous correspondence with aspiring poet\, Franz Kappus was re-examined in 2020\, when all of Kappus’ letters to Rilke were unexpectedly found. Rilke’s mentorship is mirrored by Debussy’s influence on Ravel\, presenting four artists intertwined in a unique union of music and text. Celebrating the 150th anniversaries of both Ravel and Rilke. \n‘Enveloped in the rich sound of period strings\, the quartet as performed by Diderot was emotional\, riveting and ultimately cathartic.’\n-The Wall Street Journal \nTickets\nClick here to purchase tickets \nTrailer\n \nNotice: This is a rental event not organized or managed by The New York Society for Ethical Culture

SUMMARY:Write for Rights with Amnesty USA Groups 9/280
DESCRIPTION:This Sunday\, join the Society and Amnesty USA Group 9/280 to do your part in Amnesty’s Write for Rights Campaign to demand President Biden use Pardons and Clemencies to Save Lives Before He Leaves Office! \nEvery year\, Amnesty International’s Write for Rights campaign brings together people from around the world to fight injustice and support people whose human rights are under threat\, and this year marks our 23rd year of writing for human rights. Every fall\, to mark International Human Rights Day on December 10th\, the campaign brings together people all over the world to help end cases of urgent human rights abuses. \nWe write letters to stop torture\, halt executions\, and free people unjustly detained—including prisoners of conscience—people jailed solely for the peaceful expression of their beliefs or identity. \nWe have heard over and over again from former prisoners of conscience\, human rights defenders\, torture survivors\, and death row prisoners that letters and online actions by Amnesty International activists as part of Write for Rights saved their lives and gave them hope. We also have heard from current and former government officials that our activism can change the minds of decision makers. \nEnvelopes\, stamps\, pens\, and prepared letters will be provided. Please bring your own return labels if you have them. \nLearn about how Write for Rights works. \nRead about the successes of Write for Rights 2023. \nCases of Concern in 2024\nAmnesty is especially concerned to continue to pressure President Biden to commute the death sentences of those on federal death row (about 40 men) and also to seek clemency for Leonard Peltier (who is subject of the Write for Rights 2024 among 9 others) and to seek clemency for Billie Allen \nAs Indigenous elder and activist Leonard Peltier approaches his 80th birthday on September 12\, Amnesty International USA has written a letter to President Biden again urging him to grant clemency for Peltier and to release him immediately. Peltier has been incarcerated for nearly 50 years despite serious and ongoing concerns about the fairness of his trial. Earlier this year Amnesty International USA asked the U.S. Parole Commission and the Bureau of Prisons to grant Peltier parole\, or compassionate release\, respectively which they denied. \nBillie Jerome Allen has been on federal death row for well over half his life. Now 45\, he was 19 at the time of the crime for which he was sentenced to death in 1998 despite racial bias affecting his case\, his age at the time of the crime\, and lack of evidence linking him to the crime. He is a prodigiously talented artist and his family has been working on his behalf for years in face of his unfair trial. \nLearn more about the other 2024 Write for Rights Campaign cases here. \nContact President Biden\nContact President Biden by email here: \nhttps://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/ \nCall the White House directly by phone: \n+1 (202) 456-1111 during these hours only: 11am-3pm EST Tuesday-Thursday \n(Press 1 to record a message\, or hold to leave message with actual staff) \nSend a letter to the President (sample here): \nPresident Joseph R. Biden \nThe White House \n1600 Pennsylvania Avenue\, N.W. \nWashington\, DC 20500

SUMMARY:Sunday Platform with Joe Chuman: Final Platform and Celebration Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\, in-person and online! \nAfter over fifty years as an Ethical Culture Leader\, join us for Dr. Joe Chuman’s final Sunday Platform. A celebratory luncheon follows! \nJoe Chuman: ‘My Life in Ethical Culture: Reflections on the Movement I Have Loved and People I Have Known’ \nI will give my final address\, this Sunday\, as an Ethical Society leader. It marks the end of a vocational commitment that has spanned more than 55 years. It has been a long and rich career. \nI began my professional work here at the New York Society as a trainee in 1969. Over the decades I served as a leader of the Essex Society in Maplewood\, New Jersey\, and most extensively with the Bergen Society in Teaneck for 46 years\, returning to work part-time at New York in 2008. \nMy commitment to Ethical Culture has been far more than even a career. It has been engagement to which I have given my best self. I have striven to live out Ethical Culture’s most important values around which I have molded my character. It’s humanism has been my life’s philosophy which has been a source of meaning and purpose. There has been little distance between my work and my life lived. \nI intend this final platform to be a personal one. I want to share how I have understood Ethical Culture as a source of life’s meaning. I also want to reflect on some of the outstanding people who have been significant figures here here at the New York Society\, and have been formative influences on my life and career. \nI also want to look ahead to briefly reflect on what the New York Society needs to do in these very challenging times to better fulfill its mission. \nAnd finally\, as I say goodbye\, I wish to use this opportunity to thank those members who have extended to me their great kindness and support\, which will be a source of ongoing gratitude and fond memories that I will carry with me in the years ahead. \nI warmly look forward to seeing you on Sunday morning. \nRSVP to Join Online\nRSVP to Join on Zoom Here \nAbout Joe Chuman\nLeader Dr. Joe Chuman started on his road to Ethical Leadership as a leader-in-Training here at the New York Society in 1969 and continued his training at the Bergen Society\, after which he became Leader of the Essex County Society before returning to the Bergen Society\, where he served as leader for 46 years\, retiring in January 2021.
