This event occurred on:  The talk will use Michael Taussig's discussion of the "public secret" in his book, Defacement, as a framing device to analyze issues of contemporary interest. Recent examples of monument destruction, national anthem protests, and other examples related to the topic will be displayed and discussed. 

After, join us for a Religion Program Open House: Come discuss the critical study of Religion in the liberal arts. Refreshments will be served.
