Behaving Decently: Kurt Vonegut’s Humanism

This Sunday we will watch and discuss a talk about the life of author Kurt Vonnegut. In 1992, Vonnegut was given the Humanist of the Year Award and was the AHA’s Honorary President from that year until his death in 2007.

Behaving Decently is a talk given to the American Humanist Association by Wayne Laufert last June17 on World Humanist Day. Wayne is a former newspaper reporter and editor who now proofreads material published by the United States government. He has been a member of the humanist Baltimore Ethical Society since 2013 and a fan of Kurt Vonnegut since long before that. Wayne joined the Vonnegut Baltimore book club in 2011, as it began its second season. These days he runs the club with lots of help.
