Why has the organized attack on truth been so successful, and how to win this war? Journalist and author Samuel Spitale wrote a comic-style book about these questions. He is the last guest speaker of “In Search of Truth” before we conclude the series in December with a round-table discussion among the Wende’s student council members. Ashla, Meghana, Emma, Gianna, Natalie, Zora, Lexi and Hana will ask him about truth and propaganda, willful ignorance, the role of emotions in accepting or rejecting truth, and the connection between post-truth and pre-fascism.
Wednesday, November 23, 4 p.m. PST: How to Win the War on Truth
45 minutes discussion followed by 15 minutes Q&A.
