A video plus audience discussion
11 a.m., January 24, 2021
At this Sunday’s Humanist Forum, the video of a TED Talk by Karima Bennoune entitled “The side of terrorism that doesn’t make headlines” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cK74vhqzeeQ) will be shown. Then the audience will engage in general discussion of the issues that the video raised.
Here is the summary of the TED Talk:
Karima Bennoune shares four powerful stories of real people fighting against fundamentalism in their own communities — refusing to allow the faith they love to become a tool for crime, attacks and murder. These personal stories humanize one of the most overlooked human-rights struggles in the world.
