In this Humanities Forum lecture, Hanna Pickard, Bloomberg Distinguished Professor of Philosophy and Bioethics and Krieger-Eisenhower Professor at Johns Hopkins University, will speak on "What Would You Do Alone in a Cage with Nothing but Cocaine? A Philosophy of Addiction."

Indigenous scholar, scientist, and community advocate, Jessica Hernandez (Binnizá/Zapotec and Maya Ch'orti'), discusses Growing Papaya Trees: Nurturing Indigenous Roots During Climate Displacement. She offers readers an Indigenous, Global-South lens on the climate crisis, delivering a compelling and urgent exploration of its causes—and its costs.
