Sexuality and Current Events" will be presented by Kelley Johnson at the Sunday, October 18th meeting of the Ethical Humanist Society of Asheville, 2:00-3:30 PM, at The Friends Meeting House, 227 Edgewood Road, Asheville, NC.
Kelley Johnson will discuss how recent news events relate to sexuality. She will draw from the disciplines of history, sociology, political science, religion and health. This multi-disciplinary approach to current events will foster critical thinking about important issues of the day. The discussion will help participants analyze different perspectives, recognizing that we all are coming from a particular worldview. Participants will understand their own worldview and the view of others.
Informal discussion and refreshments will follow the presentation. All are welcome.

She has a B.S. in Clinical Nutrition and a Master’s degree in Public Health Education, both from UNC Greensboro. In 2009, she received a Ph. D. in Human Sexuality. Dr. Johnson’s practice includes private consultation, public speaking, curriculum development, professional training and education.
