Rosemary Flanigan Lecture Presents “The Ethics of Spectacle” with Karla Holloway

In this short interview, Duke University Professor Karla Holloway, PhD, explored how medical information – typically seen as intimate and private – is forced into the public sphere. The resulting social dramas become spectacles that play out on the bodies of minorities and women. Dr. Holloway called for a “cultural bioethics” that attends to race, gender, the right to privacy and justice. The lecture was on August 13, 2014.
