SUMMARY:Formerly Fundamentalist NYC: "Atheism & Morality: Mapping the Game" w/ Andrew Dennis
DESCRIPTION:Andrew’s talk focuses on the issues resulting from an atheist worldview. He starts by introducing a custom-made framework that utilizes game theory to identify and analyze players in what he calls “The Values Game.” He then divides the concept of atheism into three components and uses this stratification to explain how conversations in atheist spaces get derailed. \nBy the end\, attendees should be able to: \n\nMaintain a new and intuitive understanding of human moral development\nGrasp the generalized history of how we got to where we are\nUnderstand the pitfalls that activist groups fall into\nImprove their own activism\, general understanding of reality\, and conversations with others\n\nFree and walk-ins are welcome. But RSVPs are appreciated so we know how many people to expect: https://bit.ly/2JDup4O

SUMMARY:Formerly Fundamentalist NYC: "New York State Education for Religious Children: A Parent's Perspective" w/ Beatrice Weber
DESCRIPTION:Beatrice Weber was raised in the Ultra-Orthodox community and was married off to a Rabbi in an arranged marriage when she was 18 years old\, never having graduated High School. She is now a mother of ten children and grandmother of five. \nBeatrice recently filed a lawsuit against the religious school her son attends in Brooklyn and the NYC Board of Education contending that he was not receiving an adequate education. She’ll discuss why she is passionate about this issue and the community dynamics that have made it necessary for her to file this lawsuit. \nFree and walk-ins are welcome.

SUMMARY:Making Education a Federal Right for All Children
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening talk and discussion\, “Making Education a Federal Right for All Children\,” by Torah Bontrager. This event is organized by our partner\, Formerly Fundamentalist NYC\, in their series of monthly Thursday talks.\n \nTorah\, born and raised traditional Amish\, will read excerpts from her memoir\, An Amish Girl in Manhattan\, that bring to life her Amish school experiences. She’ll also talk about how the 1972 Supreme Court case Wisconsin v. Yoder enables child abuse and what her nonprofit Amish Heritage Foundation is doing to overturn Yoder. \nFREE! Click here to RSVP at Eventbrite. \nTorah is very personally connected to Yoder and will share the backstory that led to 1972. Ten years before Yoder\, the Amish in the community that she was born in were protesting the Iowa public school system. A now iconic photo of Amish children fleeing to the cornfields to avoid being forced out of their Amish one-room schoolhouse and onto the public school bus made national headline news. One of the children in that photo (by Thomas DeFeo) is Torah’s uncle. \nTorah literally escaped in the middle of the night at age 15 in order to go to high school. Eventually she graduated from Columbia University. She speaks English as a second language\, is a recurring sexual assault survivor\, has no contact with her birth parents and siblings (they say she’s going to hell)\, and\, to her knowledge\, is the first/only traditional Amish escapee to graduate from the Ivy League. \nWHAT IS WISCONSIN v. YODER? \nThe landmark 1972 Supreme Court case Wisconsin v. Yoder specifically denies Amish children––and consequently all children in the US and Native/indigenous lands––an education beyond the eighth grade. Yoder put the rights of a religion above a child’s Constitutional right to grow up equipped with the tools to make an informed choice about their future\, and to participate in and contribute meaningfully to US democracy. \nComing up on 50 years later\, Yoder affects every single one of us\, not just the Amish. \nAnd\, there is a direct link between educational deprivation and sexual assault. \n\n\n\n\nThis event is co-sponsored by Amish Heritage Foundation.
