“freedom has always been connected to responsibility...well who wrote those computer codes?”
-Dr. Hite at #HumaneEquations

[SC Honors Program @SpelmanHonors]

Dr. Hite displays this photo as an example of bowing to humanity. She points out how the NYT interestingly describes this as a “pat on the head” #HumaneEquations

3rd group! they focused on how democracy, imperialism, and capitalism show up through the moral implications posed by the story #HumaneEquations

[SC Honors Program @SpelmanHonors]

2nd group points of discussion: the black historical response to the moral challenge of laws, the damsel in distress stereotype as only ascribed to white women, and how white sympathy lends itself to white supremacy #HumaneEquations

[SC Honors Program @SpelmanHonors]

1st group presenting on #HumaneEquations
points of discussion: can value be placed on a human life?

“What I’m asking with this story is, at what point do we bow to humanity?”
#HumaneEquations @SpelmanEnglish

[SC Honors Program @SpelmanHonors]

How do our identities impact the morals we’re ascribed? How do the implications of morality change when discussing a gendered/raced/aged person? #HumaneEquations
