The Politics of Disposability: On Cancel Culture and Accountability

The Politics of Disposability: On Cancel Culture and Accountability

Society is going through a profound correction. We now live in a society where we are being required to be more mindful and more responsible of our behaviors and actions. To people relegated to the margins, this is a good thing. But the unintended consequence of this is that everyone is afraid of being disposed of and making mistakes. How do we become more ethical people who do not throw each other away in a society that has socialized us to do otherwise? We will explore this topic through a Black Feminist lens.
