Frances E. W. Harper, “We Are All Bound Up Together” (10 May 1866)
Frances Harper’s address at the 1866 National Woman’s Rights Convention was a visionary speech on civil rights, citizenship, and civic identity. In it, Harper skillfully negotiated the context of nineteenth-century reform politics while remaining true to her vision. The message of her speech was grounded in both her experience as a Black woman and her theological convictions. A close reading of the speech shows that key elements—including its signature line—have been misunderstood and unappreciated
Continuous Space Theory and the viability of an epistemic response to the sorites
If space-time is not discrete then epistemicism implies infinitely indeterministic cut-offs. In this paper, I will explore what sharp cut-offs in a Sorites series are and what they imply, and I will demonstrate that to go in for sharp cut-offs one should go in for discrete space. One might hold epistemicism to be true even while suggesting that space is continuous rather than discrete: there is a cut-off, and it is infinitely indeterminate. This is a possible reply, but the trouble in it is that one of the strong desires in accepting epistemicism as the reply to the Sorites is how clean-cut it makes the distinction between predicates. If the clean-cut nature of the reply is no longer so clean-cut, then epistemicism loses its main appeal
The Glen Merzer Show: Author of Hungry Beautiful Animals

He emphasizes the importance of reframing veganism from an obligation to an opportunity for flourishing, exploring the diverse paths individuals can take towards a vegan lifestyle. The discussion also touches on the role of family legacy in shaping one\u27s philosophical outlook and the need for a compassionate approach to vegan advocacy. In this conversation, the host and guest explore the intersection of philosophy and food ethics, discussing the importance of humility over superiority in ethical considerations. They delve into the practicality of philosophy in everyday food choices, the moral consensus against concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs), and the skepticism surrounding regenerative agriculture and cultivated meat. The discussion highlights the potential of technology in food advocacy and concludes with a reflection on how veganism can lead to a more abundant and diverse diet
