The Department of Philosophy, Queen’s University, is hosting APPLE fellow Julia Gibson at the department’s weekly colloquium on October 31.

Title: Exploring Transformative Interspieces Justice: Taking Cues from Narrative, Practice, and Theory

This talk will explore different ways of applying the concept of transformative interspecies justice in the contexts of climate justice, fancy rat breeding, and science fiction fantasy. The aim is to explore where these accounts converge and diverge, as well as to suggest promising avenues for developing a broader, if not universal, framework of transformative interspecies justice.

When: Thursday, October 31, 4:00-6:00 p.m.
Where: Room 517, Watson Hall, 49 Bader Lane
Everyone welcome.
