About the event

Keep, Change, or Cancel: How We Deal with Controversial Figures
How should we deal with the legacies of controversial public figures? Should we celebrate historical figures like James F. Byrnes, despite their partly problematic pasts? Can we separate an artist’s work from their personal life, or should modern celebrities like P. Diddy or J.K. Rowling be held accountable for their controversial actions? How do we decide if legacies deserve to be remembered of should be erased?

Join us for an engaging event during which students explore these complex questions through interactive and constructive discussion. In this dynamic format, students vote on controversial issues by positioning themselves in the room. By sharing their ideas and arguments, students try to understand different positions and reach compromises with each other. This is a unique opportunity to challenge your views, refine your arguments, and engage in meaningful dialogue with fellow students.
