Monday, March 30, 2026 – Nature is a Feminist Issue. A discussion on “Mother Earth,” ecofeminism, and its leading voices

Clarke Forum Salon: Nature is a Feminist Issue. A discussion on “Mother Earth,” ecofeminism, and its leading voices
Date: Monday, March 30, 2026
Time: 5:00 – 6:30 p.m.
RSVP: By Friday, March 27, 2026 to clarkeforum@dickinson.edu. Space is limited. More information will be sent once we receive your RSVP.

The association between women and nature has ancient roots, linking ecological history with women’s history for hundreds of years. The symbolic relationship not only connects the past, but also ideas of shared oppression, domination, and exploitation. Mother Earth was considered to be nurturing and protective, but also wild and uncontrollable. As a result of the feminine personification of the Earth, women were seen as closer to nature than men, creating a parallel that has historically synced the perception of both groups. When nature brought plague and famine, women were burned at the stake by the inquisitor for being symbols of these ills.

This symbolic association has given women a unique perspective in which to approach environmental activism. In 1974, a modern connection relating environmentalism, women, and the critique of their shared oppression was coined by Françoise d’Eaubonne in Le Féminisme ou la Mort (Feminism or Death). Since then, ecofeminism has Read more

By the Power Vested in Me

A Book Talk by Author Michael Stambolis-Ruhstorfer ’04

In both the United States and France, each side of the legal battle over same-sex marriage and parenthood relied heavily on experts. Despite the similarity of issues, however, lawmakers in each country turned to different sets of authorities: from economists and psychoanalysts to priests and ordinary people. They even prized different types of expertise – empirical research in the United States versus abstract theory in France.

Through the story of the fight over gay rights, By the Power Vested in Me reveals how and why certain experts – but not others – obtain the authority to shape public opinion and policy. At a time of soaring public distrust in experts, this book offers new ways to understand the contested political role of expertise and its consequences.

This program is sponsored by the departments of French & Francophone studies, sociology and women’s, gender & sexuality studies, the LGBTQ+ Center and the Clarke Forum for Contemporary Issues.

Michael Stambolis-Ruhstorfer is a sociologist and associate professor of American Studies at the University of Toulouse. He is also a junior member at the Institut Read more

Monday, November 17, 2025 – What Constitutes Ethical Death? A Discussion on Medical Aid in Dying and the Death Penalty

Time: 5:00 – 6:30 p.m.
Location: Hartman House, 243 W. Louther Street
RSVP: By Friday, November 14, 2025 to clarkeforum@dickinson.edu. Space is limited.

Death and dying, aging and illness are natural parts of all living, human life. This is a universally understood and accepted fact. Who is permitted to end one’s life and how to end one’s life is another matter entirely. This salon will interrogate these concerns from various ethical positions, such as: What forms of dying are deemed socially acceptable or unacceptable? Should death be initiated by state institutions like hospitals and prisons? How do these institutions provide a ‘death with dignity’? What does it mean that the death penalty is not considered “cruel and unusual punishment” under the 8th Amendment, yet only eleven states have legalized medical aid in dying (MAID)? Is it logically incompatible to support the death penalty but not support MAID and vice versa? How do the intersections between medically assisted death and the death penalty complicate our ideas about how society values different lives?

This discussion will be facilitated by Ella Layton ‘26 and professor of philosophy, Amy McKiernan.

Required Materials:

Keynote for DickinsonPoster for Public Engagement, Organizing and the Role of Faith-Based Institutions‘s Multifaith Week

Public Engagement, Organizing, and the Role of Faith-Based Institutions

Michael Pappas ’83, Executive Director of San Francisco Interfaith Council

What is the role of religious and spiritual based communities in advocacy work? In a society which is encountering Christian nationalism, religious extremism, and growing resentment of religion in the public sphere, much of higher education has sought to move away from engagement with religion. Today’s religious and spiritual communities though continue to represent some of the core realms of advocacy work and organizing. Many in higher education attribute religion as being a topic to be avoided, but without the role of religious organizations and the compelling narratives that drive faith-based communities into activism, many in society would be left without a way to engage on larger issues of social concern. This lecture with Dickinson alum Michael Pappas seeks to elevate a conversation around how and why religious and spiritual communities continue to matter in society, their historic as well as present work in communities, and the ways in which individuals can themselves consider careers that coalesce around religion, government, social justice, and public policy. The talk Read more

In 2021 nine states passed anti-CRT legislation. In most cases, these new laws severely restrict what public schools can teach regarding systemic racism.

This short documentary film is part of Mondesir’s “Haitian Trilogy” exploring the lives of Haitian and Haitian-descended communities in Cuba and Mexico. The film showing will be followed by a question and answer session with the filmmaker.

Synopsis of Documentary:
It’s New Year’s Eve in Tijuana, Mexico. Wood and Colonel are busy making Soup Joumou to celebrate Haitian Independence Day with their friends at the “Trap House.” As their cooking progresses, memories of the perilous journey that brought them to the US/Mexico border two years ago resurface. From Haiti to Brazil and through nine other South and Central-American countries, here they are, sandwiched between their dream of a musical career in the US and an American president who calls Haiti a “shithole” and believes all Haitians have AIDS.

This program is sponsored by the Clarke Forum for Contemporary Issues and co-sponsored by the departments of Spanish & Portuguese and Latin American, Latinx & Caribbean studies.

Open Forum with Auditor General Eugene DePasquale
Democratic Candidate for Pennsylvania’s 10th Congressional District

As we find ourselves in the midst of a global pandemic, our foremost priority must be to find a vaccine for COVID-19 and stem the pain of its current economic impact on families and businesses. But as we get past the immediate challenges posed by the virus and its economic fallout, it is critical we begin to think about how we rebuild. Our world, pre-coronavirus, already faced another existential danger, one that is revealing the potential scope of the danger it presents with California suffering from its worst fire season in memory, climate change.

As policy makers, movement leaders, private industry and everyday citizens think about how we rebuild, we can and must factor sustainability and green technology into that equation. Eugene DePasquale, candidate for Pennsylvania’s 10th Congressional district will be speaking about how we can use 2021 and beyond as a moment to set our economy and the world on a sustainable path by addressing climate change, structural economic challenges like income inequality, and setting the stage for future prosperity.

Why Are We Optimistically Biased About Our Risks?: Applications to the Coronavirus Pandemic

Monday, April 6, 2020
Live Stream Event, NOON – 1 p.m.

The optimistic bias (thinking you are less at risk than other people) is well documented. This talk will explain why it is so pervasive and how it can help us understand complacency in following coronavirus precautionary behaviors.

Biography

helwegmMarie Helweg-Larsen is a social psychologist who examines why smart people do dumb things. Helweg-Larsen has examined the causes, consequences, and correlates of optimistic bias (thinking you are less at risk than others) as well as other health-related behaviors and cognitions. Most recently she has examined cross-culturally how moralized beliefs about smoking affect risk perceptions and willingness to quit smoking. In her current NIH-funded research she is examining the effects of stigmatization on smokers’ willingness to quit smoking. Last week Helweg-Larsen began a research project with two Dickinson alumni (Laurel Peterson ’06 and Sarah DiMuccio ’15) in which they are examining the gendered and political factors in the link between coronavirus risk perceptions and preventive behaviors.
