What are the Dangers of Slogans and Populism? With James Moore
Description
logans and populism cliches can become dangerously powerful when not critically examined. Does their persistence, despite lack of merit, speak to their utility for some dominant power? Two examples are: ” There is no such thing as society.” and “The government has no money of its own.”
The speaker will explore these examples on their own lack of merit, while touching more broadly on human responsibility for our world today and tomorrow.
Speaker: James Moore
James Moore has been an instructor in Justice Studies at Lethbridge College, a Registered Canadian Immigration Consultant, and a contributing writer to the Manitoba Keewaitinowi Okimakanak . He is a self-motivated philosopher with interest in the possibilities of positive social change.
