The chapter claims that this apt and correct Lordean rage is morally and politically valuable because it not only registers racial injustice but it appreciates justice. Lordean rage says that racial justice is worth having. It also not only marks disvalue\, but it is a way to respond to the value that racial minorities in the United States have. The chapter also explores ways to escape strategic traps set by others to make the outraged doubt their anger and give it up.

As usual\, the discussion leader will provide a short summary of the paper and we encourage those who have not had time to read the paper in full to still participate in the discussion. \n\n\nTitle: ‘A Lady on the Street but a Freak in the Bed’: On the Distinction Between Erotic Art and Pornography \n\n\nAbstract: How\, if at all\, are we to distinguish between the works that we call ‘art’ and those that we call ‘pornography’? This question gets a grip because from classical Greek vases and the frescoes of Pompeii to Renaissance mythological painting and sculpture to Modernist prints\, the European artistic tradition is chock-full of art that looks a lot like pornography. In this paper I propose a way of thinking about the distinction that is grounded in art historical considerations regarding the function of erotic images in 16 th -century Italy. This exploration suggests that the root of the erotic art/pornography distinction was—at least in this context—class: in particular\, the need for a special category of unsanctioned illicit images arose at the very time when print culture was beginning to threaten elite privilege. What made an erotic representation exceed the boundaries of acceptability\, I suggest\, was not its extreme libidinosity but\, rather\, its widespread availability and\, thereby\, its threat to one of the mechanisms of sustaining class privilege.

If you would like to attend please email Emilia Wilson (ew58@st-andrews.ac.uk) for the link.\n\n\n\nTitle: Social Structures\, Ideology\, and Bad Sex\n\nAbstract: This paper is concerned with providing an explanatory framework for thinking about a particular type of ethically bad sex. I argue that much of the current literature on bad sex\, which takes consent to be the lens through which bad sex should be viewed\, is unable to adequately capture an interesting set of cases of bad sex. I argue that we should make sense of what has gone wrong in these cases in terms of unjust social structures creating the conditions for bad events.
