This coming Thursday -- August 6, 2009 -- there will be a seminar, "What Do Men Most Need to Know About their Anger?" It's at 6:30 pm at the Aesthetic Realism Foundation in downtown New York City -- 141 Greene Street, SoHo.

Aesthetic Realism explains this intense and urgent subject, with logic, compassion, and critical humor! It’s been a great pleasure working on my paper and learning more about the difference between anger that is for justice and anger that is narrow.

I will be speaking about the life of Nye Bevan, founder of the British National Health Service, and what I have learned about two kinds of anger in my own life. My colleagues, Dr. Jaime Torres, and Joseph Meglino, Aesthetic Realism consultant, will be speaking respectively about Puerto Rican nationalist and abolitionist Dr. Ramon Betances, known as the "Father of the Puerto Rican Nation," and a popular self-help book "Facing the Fire; Experiencing and Expressing Anger Appropriately" by John Lee.
