SUMMARY:Exploring Today's Top Ethical Issues
DESCRIPTION:The  Ethical Humanist Society of the Triangle (EHST) and Kol Haskalah (KH)  occasionally have overlapping interests regarding both ongoing and current ethical/humanist issues\, as evidenced by our respective Mission Statements.   We are having panel discussion to share/compare perspectives about current and pressing ethical issues facing us in today’s sometimes chaotic and confusing world.  A total of four participants (two from EHST and two from KH) will address the following questions (10 minutes for each panelist): \n\nWhat do you consider to be the most salient (1 or 2) ethical issues in today’s world?\nWhat would you consider to be the most helpful individual or collective actions to address these?\n\nAfter the presentations\, the audience would be invited to comment or discuss as desired.\, followed by some refreshments and informal socializing. \nThis 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.    If you wish to attend via Zoom\, please email info@ehstnc.org with your first and last name to be registered as an attendee for this program.

SUMMARY:Personal Journey - from Christianity to Buddhism and Ethical Culture
DESCRIPTION:EHST member Todd Bishop will talk about his personal journey from Christianity to Buddhism. He and his wife Beth found inspiration in the writings of Eckhart Tolle. Todd has found that EHST is a welcoming community for his Buddhist orientation. In 1961 the Supreme Court (Torcaso v Watkins) cited both Buddhism and Ethical Culture as nontheistic “religions” in its ruling. \n  \nThis 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.

SUMMARY:Addressing Economic Inequality in the U.S and Worldwide
DESCRIPTION: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”? \nThe 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. \nAbout Our Speaker:\nSam 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. \n\nRegistration for this event is required. After filling out the form\, you will receive the link to the platform.  The American Ethical Union is the sponsor of this program.  EHST is participating as a member of the AEU.
