What Did You Call Me? An Exploration of Labeling and the Ethics of Democratic Citizenship
The Ethics of Democratic Citizenship is a half-day educational experience where an equal number of high school students and mixed-age adults will discuss, reflect on, and evaluate how labeling others, and being labeled ourselves, can be helpful or not when we encounter other citizens for conversations about public questions. Our keynote speaker for this event is Professor Chris Beem, Director of the McCourtney Institute for Democracy at Penn State University. This program is a partnership of the S1 Project and the Ethics Forum at Souhegan High School, host of the annual HYPE (Hosting Young Philosophy Enthusiasts) Conference at the University of New Hampshire. Registration is required.
This program was funded in part by a New Hampshire Humanities Community Project Grant.
