Ep. 20 – The Vital Importance of Rhetoric in the Age of Cancel Culture

This is Episode 20 of the Consortium Podcast, an academic audio blog of Kepler Education.

In this episode, Scott and Joffre discuss the Art of Rhetoric, including misconceptions about what it means, and why it’s so important for students to study in the modern age of cancel culture.

Being apt in the art of rhetoric is part of what it means to be fully human. To be an apt rhetorician is to be able to speak truth with our lives and with our words about the world and into the world.

To help students develop in the art of rhetoric, Kepler offers courses in rhetoric and hosts an annual Summer Speech Competition with an opportunity to compete for the Leonberg Prize for Excellence in Rhetoric.
