Climate Change: Getting Away From Fossil Fuels
2023-06-18 13:30 - 15:30 (America/New_York) | Virtual Program using Zoom
EHST member, Chris Kaman, will present a Ted Talk “How Do We Get The World Off Fossil Fuels Quickly and Fairly” along with a discussion of the talk’s key points. The inspiring Ted Talk features many experts from many countries, both developed and developing, to help us understand not only “quickly” but also “fairly.” Climate change affects different regions of the world differently, and solutions to it must reflect such differences in consumption and needs of different regions. Solutions must involve governments, the financial sectors, and individuals to move us to a carbon free(er) world.

139 Days: Antakya’s Resilience And Recovery Efforts After The 2023 Earthquakes
2023-06-25 13:30 - 15:30
On February 6, 2023, Turkey and Syria were rocked by a 7.8 magnitude earthquake. Somewhere well over 55,000 people lost their lives and more than twice as many were injured. Buildings collapsed all over Turkey, and millions of people were displaced from their homes. Unfortunately, with our 24-hour news cycle, this humanitarian crisis has faded from the minds of many Americans. Omur Kayikci, a postdoctoral associate in Duke University’s Department of Biology, is from Turkey and will give us an update on the situation in Turkey today.
Omur Kayikci was born and raised in Antakya, Turkey. She left Antakya to study biology at Middle East Technical University. She earned her PhD in Biology at Duke University and held post-doc researcher positions at Princeton University, and Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden before returning back to Antakya with her own family in 2017. Omur had only been in NC for a month when the earthquakes hit her hometown and surrounding cities. Her immediate family and friends remain in Antakya.

This meeting is a Zoom “hybrid” meeting. We will meet at our regular venue, Extraordinary Ventures, where the program will take place. We will also Zoom the program.

From Junkie to Judge: Recovery Without God
2023-07-09 13:30 - 15:30 | Virtual Program using Zoom
Our guest speaker, Mary Beth O’Connor, will describe her long history of injecting methamphetamine. She will describe how she responded when her rehab ordered her to comply with the God-based approach of Alcoholics Anonymous and how she built a secular recovery program. Ms. O’Connor then will provide an overview of substance use disorder and treatment options. This will include six peer support groups and a study comparing the efficacy of several of them. She will explain the benefits of building a personalized recovery program and the obstacles to doing so. Ms. O’Connor will provide recovery resources and take questions.
In her memoir, “From Junkie to Judge: One Woman’s Triumph Over Trauma and Addiction,” Ms. O’Connor shares her three-phase journey. The abuse and trauma that drove her to shoot methamphetamine at 17, the chaos from her addiction, and how she developed a personalized recovery plan, without a higher power, that led to twenty-nine years of sobriety thus far.
Ms. O’Connor is a Board Member for She Recovers Foundation and a Director for LifeRing Secular Recovery. She regularly speaks on behalf of these organizations and about multiple and secular paths to recovery. She had an op-ed in The Wall Street Journal, “I Beat Addiction without God,” and one in Recovery Today, “How I Attained 28 Years Sobriety by Rejecting my Rehab’s Submit to AA Order.”
Professionally, 6 years into recovery, Ms. O’Connor attended Berkeley Law. She worked at a large firm, then litigated class actions for the federal government. In 2014 she was appointed a federal Administrative Law Judge from which position she retired in 2020.

All AEU Program Featuring The Encampment for Citizenship
2023-07-30 11:00 - 12:30 | Virtual Program using Zoom
Since its founding in 1876, the Ethical Culture movement has founded or co-founded several organizations. One of them is The Encampment for Citizenship, a progressive youth leadership program that met for the first time in the summer of 1946. Today, it has been reinvigorated by alumni determined to offer a new generation an experience similar to one they had as teenagers that changed their lives forever. They became leaders in their chosen fields, always advocating for participatory democracy for everyone. During this Platform, we will hear from them and recent Encampers about youth activism and intergenerational social justice.
In addition to the EFC, special guests for this Platform include Washington Ethical Society Senior Leader KC Slack and recording artist DuPree as our musical headliner! KC will begin this event leading us through a “Mourner’s Moment” where attendees will have an opportunity to honor the memory of a loved one by saying their name. DuPree is a musician who has performed across the country and the globe and is well-known for singing songs of resistance. She is also the artist in residence at the Brooklyn Society for Ethical Culture. Make sure you don’t miss out by RSVPing today!

Discussion Sunday
2023-08-06 13:30 - 15:30
Our national organization, the American Ethical Union, held its annual Assembly, aka convention, on July 29th. The Assembly voted on the future of the AEU, on new Directors and Officers, and on several by-law changes. We will review what happened, and how that will affect EHST. We will also pivot, if time permits, to discuss how the “us vs them” mentality is contributing to our national polarization, and what if anything needs to be done about it.

Us versus Them
2023-08-13 13:30 - 15:30 | Virtual Program using Zoom
“Us versus Them” is an increasingly accurate description for many of our relationships. Republican vs. Democrat, UNC vs. Duke, Millennial vs. Baby Boomer, and on and on. But as this has become a common mentality it seems to have become increasingly corrosive. EHST member Maura Breidt will lead a discussion of “US versus Them” and possible solutions to bring us back together.

Ethical Culture's Unique Role in the World
2023-09-10 13:30 - 15:30 | Virtual Program using Zoom
EHST will be featuring a talk given by Don Montagna in August of this year at the Ethical Humanist Society of Asheville. Here is the Asheville Society’s description of the talk:
Don Montagna, retired Ethical Culture Leader of the Washington Ethical Society, will reflect on Ethical Culture’s unique role in the world. Felix Adler, Ethical Society founder, had a clear, sophisticated and still relevant perspective of a religion that integrated science and spirituality and addressed the needs of a secular society. Why are religions declining? What are the needs of people in a secular world? Are there principles for a good life?
Following this thirty minute talk, there will be plenty of time for discussion on this theme.
This program will be presented via a Zoom session. You do not need a Zoom account to “attend” this virtual meeting. If you would like to be a participant in the meeting, please email us at info@ehstnc.org and provide your first and last name in your request.

A total of four participants (two from EHST and two from KH) will address the following questions (10 minutes for each panelist):

What do you consider to be the most salient (1 or 2) ethical issues in today’s world?
What would you consider to be the most helpful individual or collective actions to address these?

After the presentations, the audience would be invited to comment or discuss as desired., followed by some refreshments and informal socializing.

Addressing Economic Inequality in the U.S and Worldwide
2023-10-29 11:00 - 12:30 | Virtual Program using Zoom
Felix Adler established America’s first free kindergarten for working families in the late 19th century. In the early 20th century, he led the first successful national campaign against child labor and came very close to achieving his egalitarian vision in the mid-20th century. Recently, we have moved in the completely opposite direction with the widening of the wealth gap making inequality in this country too obvious for anyone to ignore. How can we best turn things around? As Adler puts it, how can we tax away “pomp and pride and power”?
The American Ethical Union is thrilled to have Sam Pizzigati, currently an Associate Fellow at the Institute for Policy Studies Associate and former Director of Publishing at the National Education Association, answer these questions as our special guest for this All-Societies Platform. Sam will explore some of the fascinating new approaches to addressing inequality both here and abroad by demonstrating how the best way to chip away at this issue is to start locally.
About Our Speaker:
Sam Pizzigati is currently an Associate Fellow at the Institute for Policy Studies and co-editor of Inequality.org, an online portal that has been tracking global inequality for over 20 years. He was the Director of Publishing at the National Education Association, our country’s largest union, for over ten years. Sam is also an esteemed labor journalist with his op-eds appearing in outlets across the globe from The New York Times to Le Monde Diplomatique. He has written multiple books on inequality as well, exploring Adler’s story in his 2012 book, The Rich Don’t Always Win. To read his latest work, check out The Case for a Maximum Wage.

John Holmgren, longtime member of EHST, has been participating in the Prisoner Visitation and Support program at Butner Low Federal Correctional Institute (prison) for over twelve years.

The Black Freedom Struggle From Reconstruction To The Present
2023-11-19 13:30 - 15:30 | Extraordinary Ventures, 200 S. Elliott Rd, Chapel Hill, NC, 27514, United States
EHST is delighted to have William Chafe, the Alice Mary Baldwin Distinguished Professor Emeritus of History at Duke University, speak to us about the Black freedom struggle. He will go back to the Freedmen’s Bureau agenda in 1865 proposing measures to achieve both political and economic equality for Blacks, then show how the issue of economic equality was neglected, even during the rise of the civil rights movement in the 20th century. The presentation will discuss the evolution of the civil rights movement, and critical moments when the movement’s goals were ignored, with the result that Black Americans earn today only 62 per cent of what white Americans earn.

Revitalizing Ethical Humanism aka Ethical Culture
2023-12-03 13:30 - 15:30 | Extraordinary Ventures, 200 S. Elliott Rd, Chapel Hill, NC, 27514, United States
The ethical movement was founded to help its members find deeper meaning and purpose in their lives – relying upon ethical principles rather than deference to a deity. Today’s declining adherence to traditional religious belief offers a golden opportunity for Ethical Humanist Societies to expand in size and influence. To speak to the needs of the current era, our speaker will invite us to revisit the tenets of our philosophy and how they inform our practice – as individuals and as a movement.
John Daken has been a member of the ethical movement for over 25 years. He is a past President of the Washington Ethical Society and a Board member of the American Ethical Union. He makes his home in Silver Spring, MD.

Insights about Philosophy and Questions about History from the Bibliography of Ethical Culture
2023-12-10 13:30 - 15:30 | Virtual Program using Zoom
Our guest speaker, Carolyn A. Parker, is working on a Bibliography of Ethical Culture: 1876 – 2026. She will share with us some of what she has learned about the early history of the AEU (founded in 1889), the early history of the International Ethical Union (founded in 1896), and the first five Leaders of the Movement (Adler, Weston, Sheldon, Coit, and Salter). Although Dr. Parker’s talk will address the early years of ethical culture, the hope is that this will lead to some discussion of still open questions regarding purpose and “mission” for our Societies as well as for the American Ethical Union and our relationship with the remnants of the ECM globally.
The Bibliography is posted online and is an evolving document. Anyone with the link can view it, download it, and use it for their own edification. The purpose of the Bibliography is to create a single, accessible record of the “literature” of Ethical Culture during its first 150 years. The hope is that doing so will encourage more people to read and talk about Ethical Culture in the present. Dr. Parker also blogs about her work on the Bibliography, which you can read via the above link.
Carolyn A. Parker, PhD, is an Ethical Culturist and member of the Ethical Society of Austin. She is also an activist with experience in advocacy at local, state, and national levels. Carolyn’s education gave her a background in the liberal arts and social sciences, supporting her work in teaching, writing, and organizational management with an international perspective.

Recovering Women's Fundamental Right to Choose

EHST member Solomon Gibson, III will present our program today. He will explore an effective strategy on recovering women’s fundamental right to choose what she does with her body, how it can be used, and why no one is discussing it. He will also review current strategies, their pros and cons, to restore this right. Mr. Gibson’s view is similar to that of Ruth Bader Ginsberg who argued that the Fourteenth Amendment held the best basis for ensuring a women’s right to choose her medical care.

In today’s climate of challenges to content in libraries, it is more important than ever that librarians and community members work together to defend the right to read and intellectual freedom.

Duties to the Dead - What If Anything Do We Owe Them?
2024-02-04 13:30 - 15:30 | Extraordinary Ventures, 200 S. Elliott Rd, Chapel Hill, NC, 27514, United States
In this talk, Will Kanwischer, Graduate Assistant, National High School Ethics Bowl at the UNC Parr Center for Ethics, will argue that we have duties to the dead, and that when we fail to perform them, we wrong the dead. If he is right, a person’s death does not mark the end of their importance to morality; we owe it to people to do things like keep promises and treat them with respect even after their life is over. Along the way, he will introduce three influential puzzles facing his view. Thinking through (and hopefully solving) these puzzles will require us to reflect on the nature of time, agency, morality, and prudence.
Mr. Kanwischer is a third-year graduate student in philosophy at UNC Chapel Hill interested in ethics and the history of philosophy. He is particularly interested in accounts of well-being and our duties to promote it, as well as issues related to the connection between agency and time. He also works on the practical and theoretical philosophy of historical figures like Immanuel Kant, David Hume, and Friedrich Nietzsche. He earned his B.A. in philosophy and German from Bowling Green State University.
