In the context of recent events in the Middle East and President Obama's speech justifying the Libyan intervention, Mark Danner writes: "The President posited a universal moral mission for the country that is, in its specificity, quite unprecedented: war as moral obligation, war as moral task. And moral task that falls, with the weight of destiny, upon the United States, and, presumably, upon the moral judgment—and, moral abilities, more to the point—of all Americans." Perhaps this points us "toward the necessity of the humanities in doing the kind of moral work, and making the sorts of moral judgments, that are being called for here as a guide to the use of American power."

Award-winning journalist and author Mark Danner and director Peter Sellars will discuss the civic consequences of the absence of the humanities in American public life and articulate a strengthened and re-purposed role for the humanities in the future of American public life.
