What explains generational differences in LGBTQ identification? Hosted by the Center for Expanding Viewpoints in Higher Education (CEVIHE) at Tufts University, this weekly series invites Tufts faculty, students, and staff to explore politics and culture by reading controversial books and articles, engaging with faculty discussants and guest speakers, and discussing sensitive political, economic, and social issues with depth, humility, and courage. Each week, participants will encounter sophisticated arguments associated with a diversity of ideological, religious, and cultural worldviews. Lunch will be provided.
