• November 2019
The talk focuses on subjects she addresses in her latest book, Why We Act: Turning Bystanders Into Moral Rebels (Harvard University Press), which examines why good people so often stay silent or do nothing in the face of wrongdoing. It will also be centered around her research, much of which focuses on social norms and misperceptions of such norms, and has been conducted with Amherst students as part of their thesis work.
