Moral Vulnerability in a Time of Political Crisis
7 p.m. / Gluck Theater, Mountainlair
Our current era is one of extraordinary political polarization, even political crisis. This crisis not only affects everyone but also requires more of each of us. Our moral responsibilities are greater in times of crisis than they are in more normal times, and how each of us responds to this crisis will tell us important things about who we are. In this public lecture, Professor Todd May will frame the nature of the crisis, discuss what it requires of us and show how our responses reveal our moral character. The event is sponsored by the Department of Philosophy.
