SUMMARY:Mary Anne Trasciatti: 'With Justice for All: Remembering the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire'
DESCRIPTION:In-person and online! \nFrom New York to California\, from Italy to Bangladesh\, people remember the 146 workers who died in the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire in Greenwich Village in 1911. Their deaths galvanized a movement for workers’ rights and workplace safety\, which led to monumental changes that still affect our lives. Mary Anne Trasciatti\, co-editor (with Edvige Giunta) of Talking to the Girls: Intimate and Political Essays on the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire\, reflects on various ways the Triangle story continues to inspire activists\, artists\, writers\, teachers\, and scholars in the U.S. and internationally to stand together and fight for a better world. \n“If there is injustice\, someone can always stand up and speak up. If there is someone\, then why not you?” – Kalpona Akter\, founder and executive director of the Bangladesh Center for Workers Solidarity\, quoting her mother. \nMary Anne Trasciatti\, Ph.D. is Professor of Rhetoric and Director of Labor Studies at Hofstra University\, President of the Remember the Triangle Fire Coalition\, and co-editor (with Edvige Giunta) of Talking to the Girls: Intimate and Political Essays on the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire (New Village Press\, 2022). For over a decade\, she has been leading the project to build a permanent memorial to honor the 146 mostly Italian and Jewish immigrant women and girls who died in the 1911 Triangle fire. Scheduled for dedication in 2023\, the Triangle Fire Memorial will be the first labor memorial and one of only a small number of memorials to women in New York City. \nNotice: Only fully-vaccinated individuals are invited to attend in-person at this time. Proof of vaccination\, photo ID\, and mask are required. \nWatch Online: Click to join at start | ID 863 0430 0961 | Passcode 609424\nTo join by phone (audio only)\, dial (929) 205-6099 and enter the Zoom ID above. \nPresider: Leader Dr. Nori Rost \nMonthly Collection: National Suicide Prevention Lifeline \n \n\nSunday Platform is our most important and long-standing community event.

SUMMARY:Colloquy: Attachment Styles in Adult Relationships (Online)
DESCRIPTION:Share your reflections on the topic based on quotes\, parables\, poems\, etc. presented by the moderator. There are no right or wrong answers\, just your individual response shared in a contemplative atmosphere. \nA colloquy led by Matthew Benson \nAs the authoritative modern text on the subject\, “Attached: the New Science of Adult Attachment” by Amir Levine\, M.D. and Rachel S.F. Heller M.A. presents\, based on the research of psychologist Mary Ainsworth and psychiatrist John Bowlby in the 1950s\, our adult attachment style is developed in early childhood in response to our relationships with our earliest caregivers and evolves depending on our past trauma\, self awareness and life experiences. Approximately 50% of people have a secure attachment style and the other half have either an anxious\, dismissive avoidant\, or fearful avoidant attachment style. \nThis Mind Body Green article explains the four adult attachment styles: \nhttps://www.mindbodygreen.com/articles/attachment-theory-and-the-4-attachment-styles \nOur colloquy discussion will explore these four adult attachment styles and how we can come to recognize our individual adult attachment style and do the personal work to emotionally heal\, evolve\, and develop a more secure attachment style for the most enriching and lasting relationships with our loved ones and friends in life. \nUnderstanding these attachment styles is also fascinatingly enlightening\, as they can help us understand why our partners and friends in life treat us the way they do\, and recognize that the kind or hurtful ways they treat us may not entirely be there fault\, but merely reflective of the attachment style they developed\, based on how they were treated by their caregivers in early childhood. Ideally we can all discover our own attachment style and do the personal work necessary to cultivate a more secure adult attachment style for ourselves and our loved ones and friends in life. \nit is not required\, but it is encouraged that you take the free 5-minute attachment style quiz below at Minds Body Green before joining the colloquy. There will be time to do this quiz online in the colloquy as well and\, once we have determined our attachment style\, we can discuss how our and different attachment styles affect ourselves and others in our relationships. \nClick on this link below to take the free 5 minute quiz to determine what your adult attachment style is: \nhttps://www.mindbodygreen.com/articles/attachment-style-quiz \nClick to join at start | Zoom ID 838 1778 1084 | Passcode 675527 \n\nYou can download Zoom at https://zoom.us/download\, although it’s not necessary to do ahead of time.

SUMMARY:Ethical Adventures Easy Walkers - Snug Harbor Cultural Center & Botanical Gardens: Bamboo Forest and Chinese Scholar's Garden
DESCRIPTION:This event was previously scheduled for September 7. \nSnug Harbor opened 1833 as a sailors’ retirement home. After the home moved away in 1976\, it became the Snug Harbor Cultural Center and Botanical Garden\, a beautiful space used by various local arts organizations. \nThere are 26 buildings in a variety of 19th century architectural styles (Greek Revival\, Beaux Arts\, Italianate\, and Victorian) in this 83-acre park on Staten Island’s north shore. We’ll walk through the tall bamboo forest and explore the Chinese Scholar’s Garden. \nLunch will follow at the charming\, outdoor Harbor Eats in the park. We can explore some of the other sights on this large botanical garden before heading home. We hope to see you for this fascinating adventure! \nPlease RSVP to Bob (rbumcrot65@gmail.com) and Howard (hrose@nysec.org) and let them know if you plan to meet at the Society meeting house or the 1 Train exit at South Ferry. \nDetails: \nWe’ll meet at Ethical at 9:30\, take the #1 train to South Ferry (where we may meet other walkers)\, and ride the ferry to Staten Island\, during which we’ll learn about the history of Snug Harbor. Arriving at Staten Island\, we’ll take a short bus ride to Snug Harbor. (Bikers can easily pedal from the ferry landing.) Admission is $5.
