SUMMARY:Salons at Stowe: How can we stand up for humanity?
DESCRIPTION:Salons at Stowe is a monthly community conversation series that invites participants to engage in open\, facilitated dialogue on today’s most pressing social questions. \n\nThe opening installment of Salons at Stowe is inspired by the themes of Amanda Mendoza’s exhibition\, What Does It Mean to Be Human\, currently on view at the Stowe Visitor Center. For our second gathering\, we turn to two foundational questions: \n“How can we stand up for humanity?”“What actions can we take to fight for human rights?” \nTogether\, these questions invite participants to explore belonging\, dignity\, and the deep impact of who is—and is not—recognized fully within our communities and systems. This conversation invites curiosity\, vulnerability\, and shared reflection as we consider how humanity is affirmed\, diminished\, and reclaimed. \nAbout the Facilitators\n\n\n\nTed Carroll \n\n\nJane Torrey \n\n\nTed Carroll\nTed Carroll is a member of the Justice in Action team at Asylum Hill Congregational Church\, the Greater Hartford Interfaith Action Alliance\, and Call to Action—groups focused on advancing justice and protecting democracy through social action.
