On Universities' Role in an Epistemic Democracy

• In Event: Cancel Wars: An Author-Meets-Critics Book Symposium

Abstract

The book has not been released yet, and as such an abstract has not yet been developed. However, as mentioned, Caitlin Brust studies epistemic injustice on college campuses. Her most recent work with Rebecca Taylor maps the concept of HWCU campuses as “epistemic environments.” Brust will offer comments and reflections on postsecondary education’s role and responsibilities in American democracy’s precarious epistemic ecosystem.
