SUMMARY:Learning Forum: Have You Sense of Decency? Shame in American Politics
DESCRIPTION:In November\, MUCC is honored to welcome Dr. Carolyn Long. Professor Long will speak on how from the use of pillories and stocks in colonial America to the rise of “cancel culture\,” use of shame as a weapon has a long history in the United States. And it has been used to mixed effect in the political arena when used to target politicians and their supporters.  Professor Carolyn Long will examine the rise of shamelessness in American politics and the use of shame against those with whom we disagree. \nWhen shame is used to demonize others\, does it contribute to political polarization? Are shame and shamelessness equally destructive to our politics and society? Can shame be used effectively in politics without demonizing the person being shamed? And if this is the case\, how can we fix this and improve our political discourse? \nDr. Long (she/her) is an associate professor at Washington State University Vancouver’s School of Politics\, Philosophy\, and Public Affairs. Her research focuses on American politics\, policy\, and law. She is the author of Mapp v. Ohio: Guarding Against Unreasonable Searches and Seizures\, and Religious Freedom and Indian Rights: The Case of Oregon v. Smith\, and the recipient of two Fulbright Scholar Awards. \nThis presentation is underwritten by a grant from Humanities of Washington and will require preregistration. You can preregister here. \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the learning forum zoom meeting. \nPlan to attend!
