SUMMARY:Joe Chuman: The Resurgence of Antisemitism in Our Time
DESCRIPTION:In-person and online! \nWe are experiencing in the United States a resurgence of antisemitism\, reaching its highest level in the past 40 years. According to the Anti-Defamation League\, which tracks hate crimes\, in 2021 there was a total of 2\,717 antisemitic incidents across the U.S. These include not only harassment\, swastika daubing\, and vandalism\, but also assaults on persons. The terrorist massacre at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh in October 2018 left eleven people dead and was the deadliest antisemitic attack in American history. It is part of the mosaic of escalating hatred of Jews. Antisemitism has always been with us\, but it is attaining active expression and becoming regularized. \nClearly\, the volatile reappearance of antisemitism is tied to the outpouring of hate on the American landscape that we witness more generally. But it also has its distinctive dynamics that revive ago-old stereotypes about Jews. Added to it is a growing criticism of Israel and Zionism that too readily shade into anti-Jewish hatred. Also of concern is the role of evangelicals\, and so-called “Christian Zionism\,” and its place in fomenting the dark forces of religious nationalism. \nAs a person of Jewish ethnicity\, and shaped by my upbringing and background\, the concern about the rise of antisemitism is very much personal as well as political.It is a difficult and complex topic. I will strive to provide some clarity. \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. \nMonthly Collection: M.K. Gandhi Institute for Nonviolence \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 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 Humanist philosophy. Each Sunday meeting is followed by a luncheon and social hour. \nTo watch previous Sunday Platforms\, visit our Videos page and YouTube channel.

SUMMARY:Ethics Unplugged Open House
DESCRIPTION:Join Society Leaders Nori Rost and Jé Hooper for this introduction to our new series\, Ethics Unplugged\, an exciting re-imagining of Ethical Culture. This experimental\, alternative Platform gathering will be held every Wednesday at 7 PM in Adler Hall. All are invited! \nClick here to RSVP for our open house on January 25 at 7:00pm! \nWith Ethics Unplugged\, our goal is to use art\, music\, uniquely focused events\, and deeper discussions to re-imagine our Humanist congregational experience for a younger and more diverse audience\, while broadening and re-invigorating the Ethical Culture experience for our long-time members and friends in New York City and beyond. \nEthics Unplugged gatherings will be focused on interconnection and interpersonal development\, building relationship and community that affirms the worth and dignity of all people\, including those who have been traditionally underserved: people of color\, LGBTQ people\, persons with disabilities\, and those who have difficult family dynamics and are seeking to celebrate and courageously connect with others. \nWhy the name Ethics Unplugged? \nBecause in these gatherings we will unplug from what Ethical Culture has traditionally looked and sounded like\, something we believe is urgently needed to make our movement and Society relevant to the next generation\, and to all of New York City. \nClick here to RSVP for our open house on January 25 at 7:00pm!

SUMMARY:Share and Learn: Arts\, Hobbies\, and Handiwork - 'A Lifelong Hobby: The Craft of Cars and Model Boats' (Online)
DESCRIPTION:Join us to learn about a panoply of creative activities brought to you by members\, friends\, relatives\, and neighbors. Two moderators will share the hour\, presenting their pleasurable pastimes. There will be time for Q&A for each. Learn about and enjoy something new! 2nd and 4th Thursdays. \nRichard McBride has always had an interest in foreign sports cars. As soon as he was 18 and able to get a license in NYC\, he purchased a 1952  MGTD.  That began his love of cars and their sequential restoration — next\, an Austin Healy and then\, an Alpha Romeo.\nIn 1966\, Richard and Ellen went to Europe\, where they used a Volkswagen square back fitted with a device that allowed the  front seats to go flat and enable a bed which was used for the majority of the year abroad. On returning in 1967\, Richard purchased a Lotus élan and began again to work on cars\, restoring them in a rented garage. A Porche 914-6 followed and then a 1956 ACACE.  Richard’s restoration made the cover of the 2008 Greenwich Bonhams auction and won the award for Best limited production car and a record sale for Type 49.\nThen it was a Jaguar XK 150 that he restored and sold.  Richard’s final car — a BUGATTI 1932 — made the cover of the Bonhams Greenwich sale Catalog in 2017.  In order to restore the Bugatti\, Richard visited Mulhouse\, France\, home of the Bugatti company\, where he obtained necessary information\, examined Bugatti’s records and obtain diagrams. Our friends in France helped translate.Having moved to NYC and faced with the inside of an apartment and the pandemic\, Richard turned to Model boats. The first were a small schooner and sail boat. Then he got into serious models and ordered from a European company — Disamodel. The first was the HMS Victory\, a cut-away so that you can see the inside workings of the boat. Then came a big tug boat and now he is working on a British war ship. All the models are ordered from the same company though the manufacturers appear to be all over Europe. \nClick to join at start | Zoom ID 884 1105 5819 | Passcode 140176
