Tribalism: A Cross-Disciplinary Conversation

 

An ICE Public Dialogue with Vanessa Woods, Brian Hare, M.T. Anderson, and ICE Director Marcelo Gleiser

From time immemorial our species has gathered in tribes. We still do, even if our notion of tribe has been greatly diversified to include socio-economic, religious, political, and many other tribal kinds. To what extent does tribalism serve us still? While the tribe protects and creates social cohesion, it also can segregate and ostracize. Join us for a timely live conversation with Duke University’s evolutionary anthropologists Vanessa Woods and Brian Hare—authors most recently of Survival of the Friendliest; National Book Award winner novelist and essayist M.T. Anderson; and ICE@Dartmouth director, physicist, and author Marcelo Gleiser.
This event is free and open to the public.
