Listen "Conspiracies and Complicity"
Episode Synopsis
Critiques of conspiracy thinking abound — but what if our world needs a conspiracy, of people willing to confront their own participation in institutional injustices? Joseph Dumit explains why large corporations knowingly engage in antihuman activities; he also draws from Adrian Piper’s insights into bullying institutions, the impact of bystanding, and the importance of blowing the whistle when we notice harm being inflicted. (Encore presentation.)
