Lecture 1: Crime and Karma
- 3-hr session yesterday in Birmingham, UK, at the Asian Rationalist Society which I greatly enjoyed with a wise Chair and well-informed audience, all with grass roots work experience. Some of them old friends! Lawyer, Activists, Journalists, Factory Workers etc.
This was a lecture on the Caste System, not just in India but also in Nigeria, Japan and elsewhere, and how it originated and how many - including victims of the system - perversely still want it to continue.
- Release of the South Asian Humanist Association T Shirt by the leadership of the Asian Rationalist Society, the pioneer group founded by Rationalists from Punjab.
- An animated evening at the group's favourite watering hole. Where Humanism and good food and lots of camaraderie and argument fill the evening just like every week for the past 27 years!
