Culture frames the possibilities for thought and action so that certain morally relevant facts are eclipsed and others distorted. This results in shared practices that are unjust and oppressive. Resistance may be made by individuals, but there are many reasons that it is best undertaken as a collective enterprise. My talk will elaborate this view and consider when social movements legitimately demand our support.
