Common Wealth: Living in a Shared World
Advertisement
Our wellbeing depends far more on the wealth we share than on our private finances and possessions. This talk by Scott Russell Sanders, Professor Emeritus of English at Indiana University and Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, will celebrate the gifts of nature and culture that support and enrich our lives. It will also show how these shared riches—atmosphere, oceans, biodiversity, parks and public schools, arts and science, laws and language, and many more—are under assault by those who wish to exploit them for personal or corporate gain. By recognizing the common wealth that sustains us, we may be moved to defend it. Questions, reactions, and insights will be welcomed.
The talk will be followed by a brief reception.
The Unitarian Universalist Church is located at 2120 N. Fee Lane.
