Dr. José Medina: Resisting under Conditions of Oppression - Silencing and Protest

March 26, 2025 66th Annual Bishop Hurst Philosophy Lecture Abstract: Resisting injustice is not an easy thing to do under conditions of oppression. There are different ways in which protesting voices are silenced and their resistance against injustice is rendered invisible. This talk will critically examine the challenges that oppressed groups face when they try to protest injustices under conditions of communicative marginalization. The talk will discuss how silencing and social invisibility are resisted by social justice movements that advocate for the oppressed, and how oppressed subjects use public protest as a mechanism of epistemic self-empowerment.
