SUMMARY:Sunday Platform - Dr. Sonja Cherry-Paul: "Reading for Truth and Affirmation"
DESCRIPTION:Who writes a story matters. Texts are not neutral. The racial identities of creators impact the stories they create. Sonja describes two essential factors that guided her writing in Stamped (For Kids)\, and they are critical for young readers. She addresses the importance of young people having access to books where they’re able to read for truth—the both painful and celebratory history of the United States. And she provides insights on the importance of young people accessing books where they’re able to read for affirmation—where the humanity of people\, specifically those who have been oppressed\, is affirmed. \nDR. SONJA CHERRY-PAUL is the New York Times best-selling author of Stamped (For Kids). She is an educator\, author\, and the co-founder of the Institute for Racial Equity in Literacy. Sonja is the Director of Diversity and Equity at the Teachers College Reading and Writing Project at Columbia University and the host of The Black Creators Series. She develops curricula that centers the work of racial literacy and culturally-relevant teaching in K-12 schools. Sonja leads presentations at educational conferences and works with educators around the world\, providing professional development on antiracist reading and writing instruction. \nWatch Online! – Click to join at start | ID 863 0430 0961 | Passcode 609424 \nNotice: Only fully-vaccinated members of the public are invited to attend in-person at this time. \nPresider: Barbara Carlsen \nShared Charity: Women for Afghan Women \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.

SUMMARY:Great Literature Discussion: Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace (Online)
DESCRIPTION:A gargantuan comedy about the Pursuit of Happiness in America\, Infinite Jest explores what entertainment is and why it has come to so dominate our lives\, how our desire for it affects our need to connect with other people; and what the pleasures we choose say about who we are. It is a uniquely American exploration of the passions that make us human. \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. 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.
