Fireside Chat: Gerrymandering—What Is It, How Can We Measure It, and What Can We Do About It?

Jan 18 2022, 7:30pm CST

Gerrymandering refers to the practice of drawing legislative districts so that one political party wins a disproportionate number of seats relative to their share of the electorate.

Book Club Discussion of "Caste" by Isabel Wilkerson With Duke Professor Patrick Smith

Feb 01 2022, 6:30pm EST

The Kenan Institute for Ethics established the Ethics Book Clubs for Alumni to foster community, to provide a space for alumni to read and discuss recently published novels, and to encourage readers to engage with ethical issues and questions found within these works. The Kenan Institute firmly believes that ethics matters everywhere, and literature (particularly novels) are excellent resources for imagining the ways in which ethics constitutes the world as it is now—and as we desire it to be.
