SUMMARY:Puffin Interview Series w/ Leader Joe Chuman: “Hate: Why We Should Resist It with Free Speech\, Not Censorship” with Nadine Strossen (Online)
DESCRIPTION:Our friends at the Puffin Cultural Forum have announced the Puffin Interview Series with our own Leader Dr. Joe Chuman! \nOn the first Sunday of every month Dr. Chuman will delve into and explore the work of renowned authors through meaningful dialogue in an intimate interview format\, all streamed live on Youtube. There will be an opportunity for audiences to ask their own questions during a Q&A session. \n\nMore Interviews TBA!\nAbout Nadine Strossen and Hate: Why We Should Resist It with Free Speech\, Not Censorship \nWe live in an era in which offensive speech is on the rise. The emergence of the alt-right alone has fueled a marked increase in racist and anti-Semitic speech. Given its potential for harm\, should this speech be banned? Nadine Strossen’s Hate: Why We Should Resist It with Free Speech\, Not Censorship dispels the many misunderstandings that have clouded the perpetual debates about “hate speech vs. free speech.” She argues that an expansive approach to the First Amendment is most effective at promoting democracy\, equality\, and societal harmony. \nNadine Strossen has written\, taught\, and advocated extensively in the areas of constitutional law and civil liberties\, including through frequent media interviews. From 1991 to 2008\, she served as President of the American Civil Liberties Union\, the first woman to head the nation’s largest and oldest civil liberties organization. Professor Strossen is currently a member of the ACLU’s National Advisory Council\, as well as the Advisory Boards of Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC)\, Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE)\, Heterodox Academy\, and the National Coalition Against Censorship. When she stepped down as ACLU President in 2008\, three Supreme Court Justices participated in her farewell and tribute luncheon: Ruth Bader Ginsburg\, Antonin Scalia\, and David Souter. Photo credit: NY Law School \nBuy the book here. \nAbout Leader Dr. Joe Chuman \nJoe Chuman recently retired as the Leader of the Ethical Culture Society of Bergen County\, a community he served beginning in 1974. Since 2008\, he has been a part-time Leader of the New York Society for Ethical Culture. He currently teaches on human rights at Columbia University and Hunter College\, and has taught at the United Nations University for Peace in Costa Rica. His works have been published in the New York Times\, The Humanist\, Free Inquiry\, Humanistic Judaism\, and many other periodicals. Joe currently serves as president of the Bergen County Sanctuary for Asylum Seekers\, founded by the Ethical Culture Society of Bergen County. \nWatch Live Here! \n

SUMMARY:Leader’s Roundtable: Twitter: Philosophical Friend or Foe? (Hybrid)
DESCRIPTION:Bring your lunch and join Leader Dr. Nori Rost and members for an engaging round-table discussion on the issues of the day and recommended readings. \nToday’s articles deal with the Twitter mechanisms that invite vulnerable\, contextual posts and\, with the same mechanisms\, create the risk that what we post will be misquoted\, taken out of context and used to crush us!

SUMMARY:Great Literature Discussion: "Seeing Red" with Author Lina Meruane (Online)
DESCRIPTION:This week’s discussion is about Seeing Red by Lina Meruane. We’re also thrilled to announce that we’ll be joined by the author herself for our discussion. \nThis profound novel describes a young Chilean writer recently relocated to New York for doctoral work who suffers a stroke\, leaving her blind and increasingly dependent.

She won Guggenheim and National Endowment for the Arts fellowships. Professor Meruane’s doctoral work was a New York University\, where she teaches Latin American literature and culture. \nIf you have a question for Lina\, please submit it to Gunther and he’ll create a queue of questioners. \nAbout GLD: Literary 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. Read the work in advance and be prepared to discuss the aspects of interest to you by referring to specific related text and reading it to the group. Moderated by Ethical NYC member Gunther Tielemans. \nFor access information\, please contact Gunther.

She’ll also explore one city’s successful mental health crisis system\, and an advocacy organization that still finds problems with the police who\, after their crisis intervention trainings (CITs)\, are still causing the unnecessary deaths of people experiencing mental health crises. \nThe presentation will highlight an organization that is now advocating for non-police response to all mental health crisis calls\, to more effectively and safely assist a person experiencing a mental health crisis. The presentation will end with a brief discussion of the National 988 number set to go into effect in 2022. \nEvelyn Graham-Nyaasi is a graduate of City College\, The Borough of Manhattan Community College and Howie T. Harp Advocacy Center. Currently\, she is studying Adolescent Education at St. John’s University Graduate School of Education.

She was diagnosed with Bipolar Depression in 1990 and has had to navigate through a mental health system that can be difficult at times. Through her lived experiences\, this topic is near to her heart and she is committed to advocate for change in the mental health system. \nNotice: Only fully-vaccinated individuals are invited to attend in-person at this time. \nWatch Online! – Click to join at start | ID 863 0430 0961 | Passcode 609424 \nPresider: Leader Dr. Richard Koral \nShared Charity: Students for Justice \n\nSunday Platform is our most important and long-standing community event.

SUMMARY:AEU All-Society Platform: "W.E.B. Du Bois: Will the Truth Set You Free?" (Online)
DESCRIPTION:On February 7\, 1949\, renowned scholar and civil rights activist Dr. W.E.B. Du Bois gave a speech (the written version unearthed by our own Carolyn Parker) at the New York Society for Ethical Culture. We will be listening to a reading of this historic address as Dr. Du Bois speaks about the importance of acknowledging the hardships that African Americans have faced as well as their contributions to this country’s success. \nThis historic address is consistent with the resolution passed at the 2017 AEU Assembly titled “Toward Repairing the Harm of Racism.” There\, the AEU stated its goal of addressing racial inequality by examining the effects that racial discrimination has had and continue to have on people of color. Dr. Du Bois’ address echoes this sentiment\, a timeless reminder that we cannot create a better future without looking into the past. This event will take place virtually on Zoom on Sunday\, January 30th\, at 11am Eastern Time with Dennis D. Parker reading Dr. Du Bois’ speech. We hope to see you there! \nWe are excited to have Dennis D. Parker of the National Center for Law and Economic Justice (NCLEJ) do the verbal reenactment of Dr. Du Bois’ address. Prior to his work at the NCLEJ\, he fought for racial equality on behalf of other social justice-focused organizations like the ACLU and NAACP. Dennis has also published multiple pieces on civil rights including articles and books as well as teaching the subject as an adjunct professor at Columbia Law School/Teachers College and NYU Law School. \nSpecial thanks to the volunteer planners of the 1/30 All-Society Platform: Susan Solomon of the Ethical Society of Northern Westchester\, Carolyn Parker of the Ethical Society of Austin\, Taty Sena of the Brooklyn Society For Ethical Culture\, and Joanna Brandt of the Baltimore Ethical Society! \nNotice: Only fully-vaccinated individuals are invited to attend in-person at this time. \nClick to Join at Start | Zoom ID 891 9333 5697 \nPresider: Leader Dr. Nori Rost \nShared Charity: Students for Justice \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 our Videos page and YouTube channel.
