SUMMARY:Daughters of Liberty: Gender and the Politics of Revolution
DESCRIPTION:DAUGHTERS OF LIBERTY – GENDER AND THE POLITICS OF REVOLUTION: The American Revolution promised a new political world. But what place did women hold in that world? This talk explores how the Revolutionary era’s popular culture celebrated female patriotism while also defining the boundaries of women’s political power. From boycotts and battlefield support to the ideal of the “Republican Mother\,” we’ll consider how ideas about femininity and masculinity shaped the meaning of liberty itself. By tracing both opportunity and constraint\, this lecture invites the audience to reflect on how Revolutionary-era debates about gender continue to echo in American civic life today. All are welcome from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. in the Ruth Haas Library on the Midtown campus.

SUMMARY:World Philosophy Day: Ignorance\, Injustice\, and Responsibility
DESCRIPTION:WORLD PHILOSOPHY DAY – IGNORANCE\, INJUSTICE AND RESPONSIBILITY: To honor World Philosophy Day\, the Department of History\, Philosophy\, and World Perspectives invites you to a lecture on: Ignorance\, Injustice\, and Responsibility by Joshua Kassner J.D.\, Ph.D. \nWhen: 12:30 – 1:45 p.m.\, Thursday\, Nov. 16\nWhere: White Hall 307 \nIn recognizing the impact of digital communication and the speed with which information can be shared around the globe we reevaluate our understanding of ignorance as an excuse\, at least in matters of global injustice. We have a duty – as moral agents – to make reasonable efforts to be informed about the moral significance of our actions. Factual ignorance as an excuse applies in far fewer instances than is commonly thought. \nBio: Joshua Kassner is a Professor of Philosophy at the University of Baltimore where he teaches courses in normative and applied ethics\, political philosophy\, and the philosophy of law. His research is focused on the global arena with specific interests in governing the normative framework of international relations. He has published on global justice\, international political theory\, and the morality of humanitarian intervention. Most recently\, he published a book on the moral nature and limits of state sovereignty (2021) and a chapter in an anthology on immigration\, human rights\, and state sovereignty (2022). Currently\, he is working on a book on human rights to be published later this year.
