Civility Unbound: NYC Launch Event

This New York City conversation brings together contributors to Civility Unbound to examine how civility operates across culture, identity, media, and the arts. Drawing on perspectives from scholarship, journalism, and creative practice, the discussion will explore civility’s dual role in public life—how it can foster democratic dialogue while also, at times, limit challenges to injustice. The program features Charlton McIlwain, Vice Provost for Faculty Affairs and Professor of Media, Culture, and Communication at New York University; Kwame Anthony Appiah, University Professor of Philosophy and Law at NYU; and Catharine Stimpson, University Professor and Dean Emerita at NYU, moderated by Eric Klinenberg, Helen Gould Shepard Professor of Social Science and Director of the Institute for Public Knowledge at NYU.

This event is for the NYU community and the general public. Visitors must have a valid government ID to enter the building.
