Anne Watts is a certified hypnotherapist, educator, mediator and coach, specializing in couples and family dynamics, healing the inner child and issues of self-esteem and sexual abuse. In workshops offered by the Human Awareness Institute (http://w15.hai.org), Anne witnessed the transformation occurring on a deep and practical level; they opened their hearts to themselves and others through the healing power of love. Anne realized that she had found the vehicle to express compassion, empathy and service to others in a way that transcends social and cultural boundaries, and trained to be a HAI facilitator. Since 1985, she has facilitated hundreds of workshops in the U.S., Australia, Japan, Germany and England.

Prof. Nancy C. Unger

June 11, 2017

For more than one hundred years, gay clubs and bars have served as sanctuaries and party-spots and hook-up sites. They’ve been the secular centers of community and education. But also of violence and persecution that ultimately led to great advancements in pride, rights, and freedoms. This richly illustrated talk by Santa Clara University history professor Nancy C. Unger highlights the history of a long and colorful American tradition in the LGBTQ community: the gay bar.

According to evolutionary humanist Julian Huxley, humanity now has been appointed managing director of the biggest business of all, the business of evolution. Human beings are determining the direction of evolution on this earth. Humanists are invited to assume a bigger role and vision in this process. This presents an opportunity for humanists all over the world to envision a better future for humanity and a planetary era of one earth, one family, one future.

Our speaker, Manuel Manga, is an organizational consultant, facilitator, and leadership coach.
