Philosophy Social Hour Event Series
Varieties of Queer (In)visibility
Speaker: Matthew Moore
12:30–2 p.m.
3308 Boylan Hall
Since the beginning of the gay rights movement, the phrase "coming out of the closet" has been commonly used to describe an important aspect of the LGBTQ experience. More recently, however, as the queer community has expanded and developed, new forms of visibility (and invisibility) and new ways of thinking about self-disclosure have emerged as well. Professor Matthew Moore will lead this open-ended discussion of the varieties, and the moral implications, of self-disclosure in the LGBTQ community. Refreshments will be served.

Social Epistemology in Punk Rock, Mosh Pits, and the DIY Scene
Speaker: Christina Weinbaum

Punk rock is built around a collective of individuals who share beliefs, ideas, emotions, and a passion for music. In this discussion, Professor Christina Weinbaum is interested in investigating social exchanges in mosh pits and among the DIY scene. Come to Social Hour to ask questions and discuss philosophical issues in a relaxed setting. Snacks will be provided.
