Speaking evil: who believes the angry woman? Author reading with Sigrid Wallaert

In her book "Kwaad spreken: wie gelooft de boze vrouw" (Speaking Evil: who believes the angry woman), philosopher Sigrid Wallaert brings an accessible introduction to epistemic injustice: a philosophical concept that examines how our judgments about speaking and listening are influenced by expectations, power, and stereotypes. It is about: - how we determine who is ‘credible’ — and who is not - why anger is often judged differently depending on who is speaking - how we can listen to each other more honestly and carefully What you can expect ✔️ no prior knowledge needed ✔️ clear examples from daily life ✔️ philosophy as an invitation to conversation, not as a judgment Sigrid Wallaert wants to make philosophy as accessible and welcoming as possible. She breaks the stereotypical image of the philosopher and offers ideas that you can immediately recognize and apply. After the lecture, there is room for exchange and conversation. Organized by Femma Royale and Bib Joske.
