USD Hosts Ethics Law and Society Lecture
The University of South Dakota Department of History and Philosophy will host Alice Crary of the New School for the 2nd annual Ethics, Law and Society Lecture April 19 at 2 p.m. in Old Main’s Farber Hall.
The title of the lecture is “The Horrific History of Comparisons between Cognitive Disability and Animality (and How to Move Past It).”
Crary’s talk combines a call for extreme caution in the use of animal comparisons with a defense of equal human dignity that acknowledges moral fellowship between human beings—whatever the level or nature of their cognitive endowments—and non-human animals.
The lecture is free and open to the public.
