Masks and Ethics
“Ethics and Masks” is a segment from “Masking”, an experimental documentary by Joellyn Rock, created during the evolving pandemic in June 2020. This segment features a short interview with Alexis Elder, Associate Professor of Philosophy, who researches Ethics and Technology. In her free time, Dr. Elder knits, crafts, and uses her skills to make masks when a pandemic calls.
Co-hosted by Carla Hamilton, Jazmin Wong & Drew Digby!
