What makes something art? Why should we care about other people? Is it ever okay to lie? Difficult questions like these pop up all the time, but how are we supposed to answer them?

Join Morehouse College Philosopher Dr. Dan Peterson for an introduction to the tools philosophers use to tackle difficult questions. Over the course of this workshop, we'll play games and engage in activities and discussions that help us think critically about the world around us and the big questions we all wonder about. You may not leave with all the answers, but it will certainly give you something to think about.
