AMERICAN PHILISOPHICAL YOUTH SOCIETY Activity Organizer: Yona Lu Email: yona.lu@gmail.com Dates: 1st and 3rd Monday of the month (First meeting 9/16, last meeting 4/21) Time: 4:30 PM–5:00 PM Grades: 6–12 Description: Welcome to the American Philosophical Youth Society! Here, we delve into the timeless wisdom of ancient philosophers like Aristotle, Plato, and Socrates, exploring their insights into the nature of reality, ethics, and human existence. Moving forward in time, we also examine the contributions of modern thinkers such as Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill, grappling with contemporary issues and ethical dilemmas through the lens of their philosophical perspectives. In addition to studying individual philosophers and their ideas, we will also examine the philosophical foundations of political systems from around the globe. From democracy to dictatorship, socialism to capitalism, we will analyze the underlying principles that shape societies and governments. Every single moment and day of our lives, philosophy comes into play. Through engaging discussions, thought-provoking lectures, and interactive activities, by joining this club, you will gain a deeper understanding of the philosophy in society.
