SUMMARY:Sunday Platform with Daniel Wortel-London: 'The Beloved Economy: Ethical Economic Thought and the Rebuilding of Community'
DESCRIPTION:Free in-person and online! \nWhat is the economy? At its most basic\, it’s how we meet our material needs. But some of these methods have come at a profound cost—fracturing communities\, degrading environments\, and concentrating wealth at the expense of shared flourishing. Drawing on historical and contemporary research\, this talk explores a different tradition: ethical economic thinking that centers community\, care\, and democratic participation. What would it mean to build an economy we actually love—one that serves people and places\, not just growth? \nCommunity lunch follows\, free for first-time guests and families participating in the Young Ethical Explorers Program. \nJoin Online\nRSVP to Join on Zoom \nAbout Daniel Wortel-London\nDaniel Wortel-London\, Ph.D. is a historian\, policy researcher\, and Visiting Assistant Professor of History at Bard College.

SUMMARY:Sunday Platform with Curt Collier: How to be Gay (Even if You're Not a Homosexual)
DESCRIPTION:Free in-person and online! \nAt a time when many people still struggle to live openly and authentically\, “How to Be Gay: Even If You Are Not a Homosexual” explores a deeper and more universal question: what can all of us learn from those who have had to fight simply for the right to exist as themselves? \nDrawing from the writings\, reflections\, and lived experiences of gay thinkers\, activists\, and ordinary people\, this talk examines how the struggle for self-acceptance often produces profound insights into courage\, identity\, dignity\, community\, and freedom. More than a talk about sexuality\, this is a conversation about becoming fully human — about resisting shame\, rejecting conformity\, standing up for the humanity of others\, and discovering what becomes possible when people refuse to hide who they are. \nCommunity lunch follows\, free for first-time guests and families participating in the Young Ethical Explorers Program. \nJoin Online\nRSVP to Join on Zoom \nMonthly Collection\nThe New York Society for Ethical Culture \nAbout Sunday Platform\nSunday Platform is our most important and long-standing community event.
