SUMMARY:Process Explorations: Mark Davies
DESCRIPTION:   \n\nTheme: Responding to a Fractured World: Re-think\, Re-act\, Re-create \nTopic: Re-thinking and Re-creating Higher Education in a Time of American Fascism \nPresenter(s): Mark Davies \n  \nOur colleges and universities must not lose their souls by appeasing American fascism. \nIt is an evil and intolerable situation for international students at our colleges and universities to be abducted\, detained\, and deported for using their right to think freely\, speak freely\, and act freely in ways that are doing no harm to others; but this is the situation we currently face as American fascism attempts to assert its control over our colleges and universities\, the students who attend them\, and the faculty who teach and do research at them.  \nIt is also intolerable that American fascism is attempting to force colleges and universities to accept federal government oversight and control or risk losing federal funding for research or even their non-profit status. How can institutions of higher education work together in solidarity to resist the current efforts to destroy academic freedom\, freedom of speech\, religious freedom\, and freedom of assembly on our campuses? How can we re-think and re-create higher education to effectively resist efforts of American fascism to co-opt it?  \n  \n \nAbout the Presenter(s)\n\n\n\n\n\nRev. Dr. Mark Y. A. Davies is the Wimberly Professor of Social and Ecological Ethics\, Director of the World House Institute for Social and Ecological Responsibility\, and Executive Director of the Leadership.
