SUMMARY:George Lakey: "Dancing With History"
DESCRIPTION:Quaker activist\, author and master storyteller George Lakey will describe his involvement in struggles for peace\, civil rights\, LGBTQ rights\, labor justice\, and environment. His life will be the subject of a new documentary film coming out this year. \nFrom his first arrest in the Civil Rights era to his most recent one during a climate justice march at the age of 83\, George Lakey has committed his life to a mission of building a better world through movements for justice. Lakey draws us into the center of history-making events\, telling often serious stories with playfulness and intimacy. \nLakey’s recently published memoir\, “Dancing with History\,” describes his coming out as bisexual to his Quaker community while known as a church leader and family man\, taking action against the war in Vietnam by delivering medical supplies through the naval blockade in the South China Sea\, and devising new tactics for direct action campaigns. \nIncluding the tactics he learned as a young man facing violence in the streets and risking his life as an unarmed bodyguard for Sri Lankan human rights lawyers\, Lakey shows readers how to find hope in even the darkest times through strategic\, joyful activism.

SUMMARY:Sex\, Apes\, and Alpha Gods: Jefferson Center salon
DESCRIPTION:Do big religions have “Alpha Male” gods because men want multiple sexual partners and women are sexually attracted to dominant males?  If so\, where did this come from?  Dr. Hector Garcia in his book\, “Alpha God: The Psychology of Religious Violence and Oppression\,” and his talk at the 2022 national convention of the Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF) provides answers from our evolutionary psychology. \nThis free event is part of the Salon series of The Jefferson Center\, and will take place at the Old Armory\, 208 Oak Street\, suite 101\, in Ashland. We’ll begin by viewing Dr. Garcia’s FFRF video. Then\, we will discuss his claims and his evidence. Sandra Coyner\, Ph.D.\, Jefferson Center member and emerita professor of history\, women’s studies\, and critical thinking\, will lead our discussion. \nThe Jefferson Center is a Rogue Valley nonprofit focused on using critical thinking and secular humanist values to understand and engage with important issues. See https:thejeffcenter.org for details on this and future events.
