Ideas on Tap: Don’t Tread On…Us? Individual Rights and the Common Good

September 29, 2020 @ 5:30 pm - 6:45 pm

Free

On September 29, join the Mississippi Humanities Council for a conversation on individual rights and the common good in the COVID-19 era.

The program will address how individual rights and the common good can–or can’t–co-exist during a global pandemic, and how COVID might further divide private and public interests. Panelists include Cassandra Welchlin, lead organizer of the Mississippi Black Women’s Roundtable; Dr. Patrick Hopkins, professor of philosophy at Millsaps College and faculty member at the Center for Bioethics and Medical Humanities at UMMC; and Russ Latino, Senior Vice President for Empower Mississippi. MHC program officer Caroline Gillespie will moderate.

The event will be livestreamed to the MHC’s Facebook page.
