‘Where Nothing Happens’
Join Magnus, Rush Rehm (Professor, Stanford), and actor Gabriella Goldstein as they participate in “VOICES OF THE EARTH: FROM SOPHOCLES TO RACHEL CARSON AND BEYOND” on KCBX radio this Thursday 1 – 2 PM.
(Scheduled to be performed at the Henry Miller Library the show, due to Covid, had to be canceled and is now being distributed across the country via radio, online, schools, etc.
The Henry Miller Library guarantees all guests the broadest possible latitude to speak, write, listen, challenge, and learn. It is not the proper role of the Library to attempt to shield individuals from ideas and opinions they find unwelcome, disagreeable, or even deeply offensive. There are many books and stories to read, to write, to tell, and to listen to.
We hope to learn from different ideas, why and how they come to be, and what values they’re premised on. To always critique and argue in good-faith. Some ‘binaries’ that we propose on our bookshelves are: Capitalism vs. Socialism | Keynesian economics vs. Classical economics | Deontology vs. Consequentialism | Empiricism vs. Rationalism | Liberalism vs. Conservatism | Democracy vs. Authoritarianism | Cartesianism vs. Darwinism | Realism vs. Romanticism | Classicism vs. Modernism | Objectivism vs. Relativism | Virtue ethics vs. Deontological ethics | Monotheism/Polytheism/Pantheism | Protestantism vs. Catholicism | Atheism vs. Theism
What a wonderful world!
