SUMMARY:Ethics and the Theater: Lobby Hero by Kenneth Lonergan
DESCRIPTION:Join us as members of the Society and theater professionals read selected plays before a live audience. Readings are followed by discussions of the ethical issues raised by the play. \nKicked out of the navy for smoking pot and now working the graveyard shift as security guard for an apartment building\, Jeff is a screw-up. He’s also achingly eager to please. It’s a combination that can lead to comedy or catastrophe — or\, as Lonergan shows in this play\, a poignant mixture of both. \nCome at 6:30pm for a reception with snacks and refreshments. \n$5 for members\, $10 for the public.

SUMMARY:Great Literature Discussion Group: Ceremony by Leslie Marmon Silko
DESCRIPTION:Thirty years since its original publication\, Ceremony remains one of the most profound and moving works of Native American literature\, a novel that is itself a ceremony of healing\, masterfully written. Tayo\, a World War II veteran of mixed ancestry\, returns to the Laguna Pueblo Reservation.

Only by immersing himself in the Indian past can he begin to regain the peace that was taken from him. \nLiterary works will be discussed based on what can be found in the text in order to enrich each other’s interpretation of the novel/novella. All are welcome to join and any edition or translation of the book under discussion can be used. \nRead the novella in advance and be prepared to discuss the aspects of interest to you!

SUMMARY:Book Launch: "How to Live a Good Life: A Guide to Choosing Your Personal Philosophy"
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the launch of HOW TO LIVE A GOOD LIFE with editors Skye Cleary\, Massimo Pigliucci\, and Daniel Kaufman\, along with contributor and Ethical NYC Leader Emerita Anne Klaeysen. \n\n\n“Philosophy professors Pigliucci\, Cleary\, and Kaufman deliver on their goal of providing a ‘glimpse of how the world looks through [the] respective lenses’ of 15 major philosophies in this anthology featuring an impressive array of contributors. . . . Readers interested in thinking more about their life-choices and options for change will be grateful for this practical guide to\, as the authors write in their conclusion\, the ‘possibilities to learn from\, ponder\, and perhaps adopt.’” —Publishers Weekly \n“Philosophies and religions are sometimes more than just dogmas or points to be argued. They can also be daily practices which help you in the most difficult moments of your life. This book explores some of the greatest ethical paths humans have walked\, including both ancient\, modern\, and non-western routes to wisdom. Highly recommended.”  —Jules Evans\, author of Philosophy for Life and Other Dangerous Situations  \n“Everyone will have something to learn from this book\, whether you are seeking guidance on living a good life\, or have already dedicated yourself to a school or tradition. Secular humanists can learn about Daoism\, Progressive Muslims can learn about Existentialism\, Confucians can learn about Ancient Greek wisdom. Those looking to seek an examined life and those looking to learn about how other coherent systems of values work will find this book illuminating. With accessible storytelling as well as scholarly rigor\, the editors have put together a truly inclusive edition that covers the central tenets of living well bestowed on us by the most prominent traditions in moral philosophy and religion.”  —Barry Lam\, creator of Hi-Phi Nation and associate professor of philosophy at Vassar College \n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT HOW TO LIVE A GOOD LIFE\nA collection of essays by fifteen philosophers presenting a thoughtful\, introductory guide to choosing a philosophy for living an examined and meaningful life. A VINTAGE ORIGINAL \nSocrates famously said “the unexamined life is not worth living\,” but what does it mean to truly live philosophically? \nThis thought-provoking\, wide-ranging collection brings together essays by fifteen leading philosophers reflecting on what it means to live according to a philosophy of life. From Eastern philosophies (Daoism\, Confucianism\, and Buddhism) and classical Western philosophies (such as Aristotelianism and Stoicism)\, to the four major religions\, as well as contemporary philosophies (such as existentialism and effective altruism)\, each contributor offers a lively\, personal account of how they find meaning in the practice of their chosen philosophical tradition. \nTogether\, the pieces in How to Live a Good Life provide not only a beginner’s guide to choosing a life philosophy but also a timely portrait of what it means to live an examined life in the twenty-first century. \n\n\n\nFor more information about the book\, visit:\nhttps://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/604070/how-to-live-a-good-life-by-edited-and-with-an-introduction-by-massimo-pigliucci-skye-cleary-daniel-kaufman/

DESCRIPTION:With wildfires in California\, devastating hurricanes across the Atlantic\, and record temperatures across the US\, climate change is more visible than ever. Despite the billions of dollars in damages and lives lost this last year\, the US is moving backward in climate policy. While individual actions can make a difference\, systematic change is essential in dealing with the Climate Crisis\, especially given its impact on marginalized communities\, human health\, inequality and the economy. This talk will focus on the why voting is essential\, how we can organize our communities\, and how we can turn the momentum on climate into a movement to the polls come 2020. \nSaad Amer is an environmentalist\, activist and the Founder of Plus1Vote\, an organization dedicated to improving voter turnout and improving representation in our democracy. The organization rallies voters on issues like climate change and reached million of Americans in the 2018 midterms. He works with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change’s Youth Constituency\, YOUNGO\, is an Expert Reviewer for the upcoming IPCC report and is an advisor to the National Parks Conservation Association on their Next Generation Advisory Council. He has worked on environmental issues in India\, China and the US\, co-created Harvard University’s inaugural Sustainability Plan\, and discovered a new hybrid species in French Polynesia. He has organized and educated hundreds of K-12 students at the Fish Thicket Land Preserve in New York and has worked with Brookhaven National Laboratory. He went to Harvard University where he studied Environmental Science and Public Policy with a minor in Organismic and Evolutionary Biology. (Photo credit: Heather Walsh) \nShared Charity: Plus1Vote \nPresider: Danny Hanson \nFREE and open to the public. \n\nSunday 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. \nTo view previous Sunday Platform addresses and interviews\, visit the Ethical NYC YouTube channel.

SUMMARY:Sunday Platform - Intergenerational Winter Solstice Festival: "Weaving the Light and the Night" w/ Bonita Oliver
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a delightful morning of solstice celebration as our inter-generational community gathers to reflect on our relationship with nature. Explore how the cycle of waning daylight affords opportunities for dreaming\, healing\, reflection\, and quietude\, and how humans since the beginning have created ceremonies of light for warmth\, safety\, and storytelling. Through storytelling\, music\, singing and meditations\, our festival team will weave the threads of the human story into the tapestry that we call nature. We are so happy that this year Bonita Oliver will be joining us. \nBonita Oliver is a multidisciplinary artist\, actress\, and award-winning filmmaker. She also performs under the pseudonym “French Leave.” The message of her work — which is largely improvised— is about transition\, the process of moving through. As a solo artist\, Bonita has performed at venues such as The Northampton Center for The Arts\, The Juilliard School\, Joe’s Pub\, and The Schomburg Center. She is a founding member of “Moving Star\,” a vocal group in residence at Carnegie Hall\, where she has recently led a program for children and families. \nShared Charity: Encampment for Citizenship \nPresider: Audrey Kindred and Leader Dr. Richard Koral \nFREE and open to the public. \n\nSunday Platform is our most important and long-standing community event.
