Whether it’s Dr. Seuss, J.K. Rowling or Mr. Potato Head, allegations of “cancel culture” seem to dominate the recent headlines. Fueled by social media, cancel culture has earned a consistent spot in the news cycle this past year. Yet the exact meaning of this phenomenon and movement is still up for debate as society weighs the balance of free speech and accountability.
JCC Greater Boston has partnered with WGBH to bring you the latest in our Jonathan Samen Hot Buttons, Cool Conversations discussion series. Join us as we take a closer look at the spirit of cancel culture and how it relates to Jewish values. With the rise in antisemitism, we explore how we may educate and forgive instead of simply canceling. We will examine when cancellation is merited and when it is insufficient or even harmful.
