Coleen at IASH

 “Democratic Philosophy is Public Philosophy: Reflections on Podcasting to the Demos” talk by IASH Fellow Coleen Watson at noon Wednesday, April 26, in LN-1106.

“Democratic Philosophy is Public Philosophy:
Reflections on Podcasting to the Demos”

I have been running and hosting the podcast The Wisdom of the People: A Podcast on the Philosophy that Founds Democracy since being awarded a Public Humanities Grant in July of 2022. This presentation will share my motivation to host a podcast specifically covering democratic philosophy as a way of doing public philosophy and document the many thoughts and reflections I have had after working on this project for nearly 10 months.
