The French'ical Culture Society of Bergen County


That's right, the French'ical Culture Society.

A film crew from the French television channel Canalplus included almost a minute and a half of the May 24 Platform in the June 7, 2009, edition of their weekly magazine show L'Effet Papillon with Victor Robert. That day's Platform topic was Child Survivors of the Holocaust, a panel facilitated by Dr. Joseph Chuman, Leader of the Society. Joe Chuman (incorrectly identified as "President, Ethical Society" in the snapshot to the right) was interviewed on camera, as was a Sunday school teacher ("Professeur de Catechisme Humaniste").
