Young Ethical Explorers – First Sunday Festival: “Black Inventors and Contributors” w/ Dr. Bentley Gibson (Online)
February 7, 2021 @ 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm
Join us for this intergenerational gathering fostering positive “bias adjustment” in support of Black lives. Participants, please research a black inventor or contributor to society and present by “Being Them” — speaking in the “I”-voice as the person they’ve researched, with a prop that helps represent that person. On a time/space map, YEE will make connections about history, and interactive stories will emerge from this jigsaw-style learning.
YEE has moved online with Zoom, and as always, newcomers and visitors are welcome! To join, please RSVP to Youth Programs Director Audrey Kindred at youngethicalexplorers@gmail.com. For more information about our youth and family programming, please visit www.ethical.nyc/youth and YoungEthicalExplorers.blogspot.com.
Ethics for Children is our Humanist Sunday school, designed for youngsters from ages 4 to 13, and takes place concurrent with our Sunday Platform meetings. Sessions raise issues of personal identity and integrity, appreciation and respect for others, and knowledge of religions, philosophies, and social concerns. Topics are explored in an age-appropriate way through discussion, storytelling, dramatization, music, art, games, and field trips.
RSVP is essential to guarantee your place and for planning purposes. If you are enrolled for the season or are members of Ethical NYC your spot is guaranteed. To RSVP as a guest, become a member, or enroll in season, please contact Audrey at YoungEthicalExplorers@gmail.com. Newcomers and visitors are always welcome!
