39th Annual Alfred P. Stiernotte Lecture
Misogyny: What It Is and How to Fight It
Thursday, October 17 at 5 p.m.
Kate Manne, professor of philosophy at Cornell University
You are cordially invited to join us for the 39th annual Alfred P. Stiernotte Lecture. In this talk, we will consider the nature of misogyny, highlight the difference between misogyny and sexism, and explain how to recognize misogyny in practice. We will then show how misogyny works in its intersection with other forms of oppression in several real-world examples, including silencing outspoken women and the hostility women encounter in leadership positions. We will conclude with some thoughts about how misogyny can be resisted.
