Civil Civics with Lincoln Library 2024 Guest Speaker
Civil Civics: "Fascism and Its Forms: Past and Present"
When: Wed., Oct. 30, 6-7:30 p.m. 2024
In this election season we hear the term "fascist" thrown at politicians with whom we disagree all the time. Usually, we use it to mean "I disagree with you vehemently!" But what does the term really mean? Are fascist terms and imagery really being used in our current political discourse, and if so, what's the big deal? Join us as Dr. Richard Gilman-Opalsky, UIS professor of political theory and philosophy, talk about fascism and its forms, past and present.
