UBC Sociology Prof. Tom Kemple will speak at a Symposuim hosted by SFU titled, “Divesting from Cancel Culture on the Left.” Cancel culture is a culture of harassment, punishment, dehumanization, and exile that has a profound impact on our communities, our relationships, our ability to effectively organize, and our personal mental health and wellbeing. This symposium will explore the problems with cancel culture and discuss what we could be doing instead.
