KEYNOTE: José Medina - ‘Protesting under Conditions of Epistemic Injustice’ (Northwestern)

What are the challenges that oppressed groups face when they try to protest under conditions of communicative marginalization and epistemic injustice? Bringing together speech act theory and the literature on epistemic injustice, this talk will analyze the different ways in which protests are silenced, and different ways of resisting such silencing through what I call epistemic activism. Elucidating the proper or improper uptake that publics give to protests, the talk will discuss the kind of communicative solidarity that we owe to social justice movements that advocate for the oppressed. An argument will be given for the special communicative obligations that we have toward oppressed protesting publics who face unfair communicative obstacles and silencing.
