Catching up on Interior Design Masters and every time the Attenborough Centre (ACCA) appears on screen I feel so proud to be associated with University of Sussex! 🥰
Discussed effective activism with some students today. Made me remember something I was taught by Cleve Jones - “Everything works!” People like to claim only one type of change making works but in reality you have to do everything. Get good at it all.
Today I gave a lecture on Humanism to a University of Sussex class studying philosophy of religion. I began with Sagan’s Pale Blue Dot photo, taken by Voyager 1. Lovely serendipity, then, to read that the probe is again sending readable data: the endeavor endures!

I’m often asked why as an atheist I teach RE, luckily Humanists UK asked me so in future I can just refer people to this
“We are such stuff
As dreams are made on, and our little life Is rounded with a sleep.”
Happy Shakespeare Day!
