Our Ethical Action group is planning an outing to attend the Wild And Scenic Film Festival at the Rotary International headquarters in downtown Evanston. We'd like to get a group together and meet for dinner beforehand or drinks afterward.

If you'd like to join us, buy your tickets for the film festival here. Then, fill in this Doodle poll to let us know which time slot works best for you. We will let you know the time and where the gathering place will be a few days before the event on the 14th. Contact Katherine Ross for more info.

Known primarily for its intense bitterness, Malört, the infamous Chicago liqueur, has been compared to “a forest fire, if the forest was made of earwax.” Josh Noel, author of Malört: The Redemption of a Revered and Reviled Spirit, will discuss the history of this Swedish spirit that some consider the unofficial liqueur of Chicago. As a beer expert and former food writer for the Chicago Tribune, he will bring us his unique perspective regarding this unconventional beverage. Josh will tell us how Malört came to be seen as Chicago’s signature drink almost a hundred years after a Swedish immigrant first introduced it.


Josh Noel is one of the nation’s most recognizable food and beverage journalists, and had a decades-long tenure at the Chicago Tribune in addition to contributions to This American Life, the New York Times, and other publications. He has now turned to book form for his journalistic narratives, first with his debut, Barrel-Aged Stout and Selling Out, followed by his latest, Malört: The Redemption of a Revered and Reviled Spirit.

Now more than ever, people need to feel like heroes in the American story. Fish Stark blends history, humor, and cognitive psychology in a look back at the legacy of some American heroes. From John Dewey and Frederick Douglass to Jamie Raskin and Quinta Brunson, these people have changed our country for the better - fairer, more equal, more open, more innovative - not by mere coincidence but because of their humanist beliefs. Fish will offer a framework for helping humanists renew our sense of connection to national identity at a moment where our national leaders embrace anti-humanist principles, and tell the stories that welcome new people into the movement.
