A philosophy discussion on what cool is.
About this Event

From Black resistance to jazz, to fashion and status, what is cool, really?

Is it about authenticity? Effortlessness? Status? Rebellion? Indifference? Taste? Who gets to define what cool is ?

How closely is it tied to one’s class or cultural capital?

Is cool at the margins or in the mainstream?

Join us for an intimate discussion guided by prompts from Dr. Ece Tekbulut. Inspired by Socratic Dialogue, we'll explore the topic of cool through questions and shared reflection.

Please take a look at the readings on Substack prior to the event.

🍷 Complimentary refreshments will be provided.
