Pulitzer Prize-winning author Elizabeth Kolbert to receive the Richard Day Hopper Memorial Medal for outstanding contributions in interpreting natural science. tinction: An Unnatural History,” author Elizabeth Kolbert explains how people have altered the planet like no other species has before and how that is driving another mass extinction. In recognition of her outstanding contributions in interpreting natural science, the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University will award Kolbert the Richard Hopper Day Memorial Medal at a public Town Square event on Wednesday, September 21. Kolbert will give an illustrated presentation and then sign copies of her book. The event begins at 6:30 p.m. and is free. To register, visit the Academy’s website at http://bit.ly/2bGJR20. In “The Sixth Extinction,” Kolbert presents evidence in a clear, scientifically documented, sometimes comical way that is accessible to wide audiences. She writes that besides creating issues related to climate change, people are destroying habitats such as rain forests, leaving animals and plants without a place to live. What’s worse, she writes, is that these things are happening simultaneously, leaving the planet more susceptible to a sixth mass extinction. “What Elizabeth has done in The Sixth Extinction and her earlier writings is pull together what scientists have been researching and saying for some time now,” said Academy President and CEO George W. Gephart, Jr. “She presents the evidence in an engaging and even startling way. She makes us think about what it means to be human.” Kolbert has been a staff writer for The New Yorker since 1999.

“To the Cross and Back” – A Religious Leader Crosses the Line to Humanism ith heart-wrenching honesty and stories of trauma, tragedy, prejudice, uncertainty, survival, and ultimately discovery, author and speaker Fernando Alcántar recounts his incredible journey at the next Freethought Society
W
Fernando Alcántar’s “To the Cross and Back” presentation is free and open to the public and takes place Monday, September 26 at the Ludington Library, at 7 p.m. presentation. From a poor Catholic boy on the dusty streets of Mexico to the globetrotting missionary and high-profile Christian leader in the United States — Alcántar eventually left his celebrated life behind to advocate for the liberating power of reason and equality. His presentation takes place on Monday, September 26 at 7 p.m. in the community room at the Ludington Library located at 5 South Bryn
Mawr Avenue, Bryn Mawr, PA. A SEPTA stop is located across the street from the library. Alcántar’s free and open-to-thepublic presentation “To the Cross and Back” is based on his book of the same name. Once a renowned, high-profile religious leader, Alcántar wants to use this book to come out as both humanist and gay to help strengthen a national narrative of understanding, tolerance and acceptance. He also wants to help give a voice to those hiding in the shadows, afraid to publicly question their religious and sexual identity for fear of isolation and retaliation. In his presentation, Alcántar will take the audience on a journey of discovery, analyzing the cultural barriers and psychological consequences of organized religion which lead to bigotry, prejudice, and harm. Through his personal story ascending up the ranks of Christian leadership in North America, Alcántar will See “To the Cross and Back” on page 4

DCS Chamber Music Concert to Feature Mozart and Bach he Delaware County Symphony (DCS) under the direction of Dr. Robert Whalen will present the first chamber concert of the 2016-2017 season on Sunday, September 25, 2016 at 3 p.m. in the Meagher Theatre of the Thomas A. Bruder, Jr. Life Center at Neumann University, One Neumann Drive, Aston, PA (¼ mile west of Concord Rd. and Rt. 452) The DCS chamber music series is under the direction of Dr. Robert Whalen who serves as Chamber Music Director and Associate Conductor. The concert opens with Sinfonia Concertante for Violin and Viola in E-flat by Mozart featuring DCS Concertmaster Nina Vieru, violin and Adelya Shagidullina, viola including members of the chamber ensemble. This composition is considered one of Mozart’s early masterpieces and has a rich history of being mentioned in novels and indeed the first moveThe DCS chamber music series is ment of the piece was briefly heard in the under the direction of Dr. Robert 1984 movie “Amadeus.” Audience members Whalen who serves as Chamber will be delighted with the rich tonal harmonies Music Director and Associate and delicate flowing melodies offered in abunConductor. dance by Mozart. It is a composition that offers the audience a musical glimpse into another world of elegance and soothing charm. Indeed the solo viola part is written in D major instead of E flat major because the instrument is specifically tuned a semitone sharper, quite uncommon on the modern viola, using the scordatura technique to give a more brilliant tone. Although Mozart composed this work in Salzburg during the summer or early autumn of 1779 it was not heard in the United States until April 1865. The concert concludes with the delightful and energetic Concerto No. 4 and No. 5 of the six “Brandenburg” Concertos by J. S. Bach. The concertos were composed in 1721 as a gift to the Margrave of Brandenburg as a gift. For the next three centuries however they continue to offer us the gift of the genius of Bach and effortlessly remind us how enjoyable Baroque music can be. Concert tickets are $12 or $10 for seniors/students. Children under 12 (one child per paying adult) are admitted free. Upon presentation of the Delaware County or Montgomery County Library card two tickets may be purchased for the price of one at the ticket table the day of the concert. There is ample free parking adjacent to the theatre and the Life Center is handicapped accessible. For information call 610-879-7059 or visit www.dcsmusic.org.

and $20 without an advance reservation. Charlie Zahm is one of the most popular soloists at Celtic music festivals, Maritime, and American Traditional music events anywhere east of the Mississippi. With a baritone voice some have described as “coming along once in a generation,” Charlie has become one of the most successful performers on the Celtic festival circuit, weaving magical moments of Scottish and Irish history for the listener and viewer, with passion for the performance and a chosen repertoire pleasing to all members of the family. A master of the guitar as well, Charlie brings an authentic love and respect for the music he sings-and with dashes of humor and a light in his eyes, he will draw you into the stories of his songs! Charlie will be joined by Baltimore fiddler Tad Marks, who has toured extensively across the U.S. and Europe with top-name groups and is considered one of the finest fiddlers on the East Coast. His down-home charm and easy-going style have made him friends across the country, and his fine fiddling on stage with Charlie ranges from hard-driving jigs and reels to the most expressive accompaniment for vocals you will ever hear. Clips of all of Charlie’s recorded songs can be heard on his “Albums” page at http://www.charliezahm.com. Freshly prepared dinner and desserts will be available for an additional cost. Parking is available on the street and at the SEPTA train station approximately one block away.

flesh out the systematic institutionalization of a religious system that promotes the withering of critical thinking, homogenization of cultural values, and the promotion of attacks on minority communities, such as the LGBT and ethnic populations. “We’ve bled enough, cried enough, killed enough,” Alcántar said. “It is time to move on. Let us finally rise above our differences. We are religious and we are freethinkers. We are conservatives and we are liberals. We are Americans and we are immigrants. We are healthy and we are sick. We are straight and we are gay. But, my friends, we are all human just the same.” Alcántar is a former denominational state leader for the Foursquare Church in Mexico and the United Methodist Church (UMC) in the United States, and was a missionary leader for Azusa Pacific University (APU), the second largest evangelical college in the nation. He has a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology and a Master’s Degree in Organizational Leadership from APU. Alcántar was born and raised in Mexico and immigrated to the United States as a teenager. Alcántar worked at APU’s Mexico Outreach for eight years as Senior Coordinator of North American Partnerships, and while there he oversaw hundreds of churches in Mexico and helped mobilize over 9,000 missionaries a year from all over the United States and Canada. He innovated dozens of new ministries and developed unprecedented partnerships with government officials, nonprofits, schools, businesses, and churches. Alcántar has spoken in front of thousands, sharing his faith and motivating people into Christian ministry, and traveled around the world serving marginalized communities. Alcántar left APU to take the role of Director of Leadership Development for Young People for the California-Pacific Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church, “Cal-Pac,” overseeing almost 400 churches for about 83,000 members across Southern California, Hawaii, Guam and Saipan. In this role, Alcántar oversaw youth and young adult ministries across the region, served as an ambassador to ethnic caucuses, and developed breakthrough leadership programs for its constituents. He was considered by many as the spokesperson for emerging United Methodism. It was towards the end of his term with UMC that Alcántar reached the twilight of his theological process out of Christianity. He left the religious community and returned to higher education, where he served at Utah State University Eastern as Director of Student Life. Moving to the Mormon epicenter proved to be a challenging option, but it was the place where Alcántar finally realized his full sexual identity. He eventually resigned in September of 2013 after constantly being personally and professionally attacked for issues administrators admitted were related to him being non-Mormon and his sexuality. Alcántar is also the host of the new unconventional radio show “Devil’s Advocate,” where he takes an irreverent, in-your-face, and easy to digest approach to politics and other social issues of the week, along with interviews of interesting humans with diverse voices.

O U T - A N D - A B O U T – Dining & Entertainment News By Jerry H. Bloom, Staff Writer Colonial Tippler’s Tour • Historic Philadelphia’s Colonial Tippler’s Tour – Ghosts & Toast departs from the Betsy Ross House, 239 Arch Street in Philadelphia, September 22 - October 27, on Thursdays at 5:30 p.m. This Colonial pub crawl gets spiked with seasonal beers and tales that will give you goose bumps. Stops include drinks and snacks at Christ Church Burial Ground, Salon 401 at The Franklin, Lucha Cartel, and City Tavern.

Immaculata University to Host Presentation on Navigating College to Prepare for Jobs of Tomorrow mmaculata University presents bestselling author Jeffrey J. Selingo. He will be discussing his latest book, “There is Life After College: What Parents and Students Should Know about Navigating School to Prepare for the Jobs of Tomorrow,” on Thursday, September 29, from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. in the Great Hall.

Harcum College has introduced a new certificate program for any adult with a serious interest in learning about and handling working dogs. Photo/courtesy PennVet Working Dog Program Harcum College has introduced a new certificate program for any adult with a serious interest in learning about and handling working dogs. Prior experience in the fields of Veterinary Technology (animal nursing) is not required to obtain this certificate. VET222 and VET223 represent a certificate program offered jointly by the Veterinary Technology Program of Harcum College and the University of Pennsylvania’s PennVet Working Dog Center. This 10-credit experience provides a strong foundation of knowledge about our canine friends, and the opportunity to work with the dogs and trainers of the PennVet Working Dog Center. Successful completion of VET222 give students the opportunity to apply to and be considered for the VET223 clinical experience with PennVet. Registration is still being accepted for a Fall start.

TEMPLE UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL’S ‘TURNING POINT’ ANTIVIOLENCE PROGRAM EARNS STATEWIDE ACHIEVEMENT AWARD emple University Hospital’s (TUH) Turning Point program has earned the Hospital & Healthsystem Association of Pennsylvania’s Community Champions Award, part of the statewide organization’s Annual Achievement Awards to honor hospitals for their innovation, creativity and commitment to patient care by showcasing innovations and best practices in a variety of areas. TUH’s Turning Point program is an intervention for patients with gunshot injuries that was co-created and is co-led by Amy Goldberg, MD, FACS, Chair of Surgery at the Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University (LKSOM), Surgeon-in-Chief of Temple University Health System, and Medical Director of Perioperative Services of TUH; and Scott Charles, MAPP, Trauma Outreach Coordinator for TUH. Recognizing that TUH treats the highest annual number of gunshot victims in Pennsylvania, Dr. Goldberg and Charles turned that grim reality into an opportunity to change patients’ attitudes toward guns and violence, and to improve the circumstances to which they are being discharged. They created Turning Point to address these important needs. Within the first 48 hours of hospitalization (medical condition allowing) patients are engaged through powerful videos, personal visits from gun violence survivors, and connections to social services that assist them with personal and education counseling, employment placement, and housing assis-

tance. “By seizing a teachable moment, this program seeks to make violent injury a turning point in a patient’s life by modifying their attitude toward violence and reducing the chance of retaliation and recurrence,” said Dr. Goldberg. “Many patients who participate in the Turning Point program demonstrate a significant reduction in their proclivity toward violence,” added Charles. “Amy and Scott have demonstrated with Turning Point their genuine commitment to prevent and ameliorate violence in the North Philadelphia community served by Temple,” said Verdi J. DiSesa, MD, MBA, President & CEO of Temple University Hospital, Chief Operating Officer of Temple University Health System, and Senior Vice Dean for Clinical Affairs & Professor of Surgery at LKSOM. Dr. Goldberg and Charles also lead TUH’s Cradle-to-Grave program, which introduces young people to the effects of gunshot violence pre-emptively, and TUH’s Fighting Chance program, which teaches community residents how to perform lifesaving first aid in the wake of a shooting. “Through path-breaking programs like these, Amy and Scott provide effective, personalized, compassionate, and otherwise neglected services to our patients. They truly are community champions,” Dr. DiSesa added.

Since “The Sixth Extinction” came out in 2014, the book has become a New York Times bestseller and Kolbert has been interviewed on The Daily Show, among other programs. The Academy of Natural Sciences presents the Richard Hopper Day Memorial Medal periodically to individuals who have made outstanding contributions in interpreting natural science and making discoveries in natural history more accessible to the general public. The award was established

Previous recipients include paleoanthropologist Louis Leakey, natural history filmmaker Sir David Attenborough, oceanographer Sylvia Earle, historian Stephen Ambrose, and Pennsylvania naturalist Scott Weidensaul. Town Square is the Academy’s series of free public panel discussions and speaker presentations about important science and environmental issues affecting the Philadelphia region and beyond.
