Practical Ethics is a discussion series that explores everyday moral dilemmas, such as white lies and tough choices about loyalty, honesty, and fairness, through lively conversations about short stories. It is facilitated by Ethical Culture Leader Richard Koral and takes place both in person and online on Zoom. This month's topic is 'A time to be born and a time to die…', based on the story 'The Blight' by Emma Cline, which participants are invited to read beforehand. Attendees can join the engaging conversation to challenge their thinking and sharpen their approach to ethical living.
