Please join us for this fireside chat with Ray Block (Pennsylvania State University), part of the the Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity Forum Series and co-sponsored by C-SPAM.
Democracy, Trust, and the Information Ecosystem will explore how people make sense of politics and public life in a rapidly changing information environment. The conversation will examine trust, misinformation, polarization, and the ways institutions and citizens respond to a fragmented media landscape. Drawing on research about the information ecosystem, the discussion will also consider what these trends mean for democratic life, civic participation, and the future of public discourse.
