Due to the COVID-19 pandemic we lost the chance to gather in person at the AEU Assembly, but here we offer more chances to be together virtually.
We invite you all to join in on three Sunday morning platforms hosted by the largest three Ethical Societies in our movement over the summer months (note time zones), as well as a special post-AEU Business Meeting afternoon platform.

Join Amanda to hear about her journey as an Ethical Culture learner and Leader, as she explores how the philosophy and history of our movement has shaped her understanding of the world. |
| July 26, 12pm ET – Ethical Society of St Louis ‘OK Boomer!’ – The Promise and Peril of Generational Thinking James Croft, Leader Zoom Meeting ID 384 422 5785 “Boomers are racist and out of touch!” “Millennials and shrill and self-important!” Recently, it seems like generational divides have been worsening, as the political, economic, and cultural differences between people in different age cohorts become more extreme. But what is the validity of taking a generational approach to human behavior? Are people really defined by their generational cohort as much as is commonly assumed? And what does this mean for the potential of cross-generational solidarity? James will explore these questions and more as examines the promise – and the peril – of generational thinking |
| Sunday, August 2, 3pm ET Special Ethical Culture-wide Platform on Zoom After welcoming Jé Hooper as a newly certified Leader, he will offer a talk, and there will be music, poetry, and special guests. We hope you can join us to celebrate and recommit ourselves to making the world more ethical! |
