People for Womxn in Philosophy (PWIP) are launching a lecture series titled ‘Theories of (Non-)Violent Revolutions.’ This first event is co-hosted with oxford public philosophy and serves as the launch of the first 'turn' of the journal!

The series aims to address publicly and commonly entertained contradictions in the particular revolutionary topic of each panel – to unpack these contradictions, oversights, and problems to challenge the irresponsibilities of uncritical thought by engaging us in critical inquiry – our broader concern covers the violence perpetuating uncritical thought inflicts and how (non)violence is spoken about and enacted surrounding revolutions and revolutionary thought.

Our first event features Prof. Lee A. McBride III (The College of Wooster) , Prof. Jack A. Goldstone (George Mason University), and Prof. Leonard Harris (Purdue University) hosting a panel discussion on pedagogy and theories of revolutions, while addressing the thematic questions of the opp journal:
‘how ought we to be doing philosophy?’
‘what could ‘public philosophy’ do or mean for philosophy today?’
‘how do you envision the role of a university?’
