Podcast: Do musicians have a moral responsibility to promote social justice?

In this podcast, Dr. Alex Gillham and Dr. Alfred Archer consider how Archer’s work on the ethics of fame and celebrity connects to the Jandoli Institute’s Sharp Notes, Sharp Thoughts music and social justice project. Gillham and Archer discuss whether musicians have a moral responsibility to promote social justice, when celebrities deserve our admiration and criticism for espousing certain social and political stances and other topics.

Sharp Notes, Sharp Thoughts podcasts are part of the Jandoli Institute’s music and social justice project. Visit the Sharp Notes, Sharp Thoughts homepage to view videos and other materials and learn more about the project.
