SUMMARY:Bulletin of Atomic Scientists: Annual Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Bulletin Annual Gathering 2023: Keynote conversation with Christopher Nolan\nNovember 6\, 2023 | 5:00 – 7:00 p.m. Central Time\nConnect with the Bulletin’s global supporters \nParticipate in high-level conversations \nEngage from the comfort of home \nFor our annual gathering\, Conversations Before Midnight (CBM) 2023\, we will remain virtual\, acknowledging that our audience is spread throughout the United States and around the world. This year we are thrilled to feature award-winning and Academy Award-nominated director Christopher Nolan as our keynote speaker. As with past gatherings\, we also will continue to provide unique access to high-level conversations with world-renowned experts on a variety of topics including nuclear risk\, climate change\, disruptive technologies like AI\, and biosecurity. \nFor those that have purchased Zoom room (“tables”) in the past\, we have a few exciting changes to enhance your experience. This year\, each attendee can select which conversation to join based on their area of interest\, rather than travel through the evening together as a table. Participants will still have the opportunity to ask questions of the experts\, who will be led in discussion by a seasoned moderator.  Then\, following these focused discussions\, your guests can return to your private Zoom room to share what they heard over the course of the evening. \nYou get the opportunity to interact with guests at your hosted table during the evening\, but you also join other groups in your topic of interest. Here are the dynamic conversations we have planned for you: \n\nHow black holes affect our map of the universe.\nPandemic Potential: What have we learned from Covid?\nWhy is the climate so extreme this year?\nFrom Oppenheimer to today’s nuclear landscape.\nPandora? Prometheus? What to make of recent breakthroughs in Artificial Intelligence.

SUMMARY:‘Israelism’ at Varsity Theater Friday
DESCRIPTION:We at Jewish Voice for Peace are deeply saddened and horrified by the cruelty and disregard for human life shown by Hamas in their attack on Israel. There can be no justification for their actions. Neither is there justification for Israel’s relentless and indiscriminate bombing of 2 million Palestinians. We call for an immediate  cessation of hostilities\, the release of all hostages\, and the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza. \nIn the midst of this situation\, we are showing a film at the VarsityTheatre that challenges the equation that loving Judaism means unquestioning support of Israeli foreign policy. It questions the proposition that criticizing Israel is somehow anti-Semitic. It is precisely because we love both Judaism and Israel that we feel it is so important to challenge the policies of both Israel and the United States that have brought us to this tragic moment. \nThe film ‘ISRAELISM’ will be shown at the Varsity Theatre October 27th at 4:00 p.m. \nTen years in the making\, this award winning documentary follows two young American Jews with strong emotional attachments to Israel and how their attitudes and beliefs begin to transform as they spend time In Israel and Palestine. They witness the harsh conditions in the West Bank under Israeli occupation and begin to challenge Israel to follow the Jewish ethics and values they hold dear. \nFollowing the film\, there will be a Q&A with one of the filmmakers. We are asking for an $8 donation at the door. \nEveryone is welcome! For more information\, please contact Avram at avramsacks@gmail.com.

SUMMARY:Answering the Call: October 15
DESCRIPTION:What work is the universe asking of us at this time? What work is the Earth asking of us at this time? What work are the other species asking of us at this time? What work are the youth asking of us at this time? What work are the future generations of humans asking of us? What work are our hearts asking of us?”  -–Matthew Fox \n  \nWe can discover our own unique contribution to life and to the Earth by listening to what is calling each of us at this moment of “meta-crisis” on the planet. In this daylong we will draw upon teachings and practices from spiritual teachers and psychologists\, share songs and poetry\, and use journaling and discussion to explore how to answer our call to make a positive difference with our life in a way that is deeply fulfilling. As Howard Thurman puts it\, “Ask what makes you come alive then go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” We invite you to join with others around the world to listen and come alive in answer to Earth’s call. \n  \nWorkshop Leaders \nShoshana Alexander\, MA\, is an author\, teacher\, developmental editor\, playwright\, actor\, and mother\, and in all roles has tried to make a positive difference for the Earth. She is the author of several books\, including In Praise of Single Parents and Women’s Ventures/Women’s Visions\, and is co-author of Awakening Joy with James Baraz. Shoshana has guided numerous books into print in the areas of Buddhism\, psychology\, and spirituality\, includingThe Findhorn Garden\, Radical Acceptance (Tara Brach)\, Faith and LovingKindness (Sharon Salzberg)\, and Bouncing Back (Linda Graham). She has taught high school and university courses in the humanities\, and created a number of performance pieces\, including a full-length play\, “Taking Our Life\,” which highlights ecocide and humanity’s imperative to choose life. This “Answering the Call” daylong is based on her previous in-person workshop offered in Ashland\, Oregon\, where she lives. In early 2024\, she is offering a three-month course on-line to further explore how we can answer the call of the Earth at this time. \nJames Baraz has been a meditation teacher since 1978 and leads retreats\, workshops and classes in the U.S and abroad. He is the creator and teacher of the online Awakening Joy course\, since 2003. He’s also a co-founding teacher of Spirit Rock Meditation Center in Woodacre\, California\, where he started the Family Program and the Community Dharma Leader Program. In recent years\, he has also focused on dharma and climate change\, and serves as a guiding teacher to One Earth Sangha\, a Virtual EcoCenter devoted to Buddhist responses to climate change. His books include Awakening Joy with Shoshana Alexander\, and Awakening Joy for Kids with Michele Lilyanna. He loves mentoring and bringing out the best in others.

SUMMARY:Third Harmony Film Screening & Discussion

1-3pm PT // 2-4pm MT // 3-5pm CT // 4-6pm ET
Free\, register below \nJoin us to watch the movie The Third Harmony: Nonviolence and the New Story of Human Nature together\, and then have an online discussion of the movie. The Third Harmony tells the story of nonviolence\, humanity’s greatest (and most overlooked) resource.

Sometimes\, we attend a course together or explore a resource on the Pace e Bene website or YouTube page. Whether restorative circles\, divesting\, Soul of Nonviolence podcasts\, Nonviolence News\, nonviolence pledges\, Engaging Nonviolence etc\, there’s a lot to put into practice!
