Susan Jacoby, speaker at the Humanists of MN 2008 Annual Banquet, appeared on local radio twice last month, and recordings of those appearances are available free online:

Friends, I am in the early stages of potentially forming a new small Humanist group in the extreme North Metro area of the Twin Cities. This more localized group would be initially intended to attract Humanists of all philosophical and religious experiences, backgrounds and viewpoints &en; and would have an early focus on defining Humanism and emphasizing its stature as a guiding and unifying ethical philosophy for our lives. Depending on the viewpoints and needs of its early members, the group would move toward discussing the implications of Humanism for current events and political issues. The meetings envisioned would include a mix of both presentation/lecture/ Q&A formats and more informal discussions in social settings aimed at getting to know each otherand to develop meaningful friendships.

We are pleased to announce the launch of the new Humanists of Minnesota website!

The new site offers many features that are new to our organization. The most significant improvement is that this site allows the posting and editing of content through the web via a visual, word-processor-like interface. Now anyone we authorize can post content, even those without web design skills.
