Brooklyn Public Philosophers is a forum for philosophers in the greater Brooklyn area to discuss their work with a general audience, hosted by the Brooklyn Public Library. Its goal is to raise awareness of the best work on philosophical questions of interest to Brooklynites, and to provide a civil space where Brooklynites can reason together about the philosophical questions that matter to them.
If you’re interested in finding out more, or if you’d like to give a talk, please e-mail Ian Olasov at his first and last name at gmail.com.

“Hello friend of talkPOPc!
I would like to invite you to our amazing happenings on the weekend of Sept 23th and Sept 24th. On both nights we are holding one-to-one philosophy conversations about censorship in our talkPOPc tent; these become episodes on our podcast.
The Saturday, Sept 23rd event is at the Center for Fiction in downtown Brooklyn (@courtyard), and Montez Radio will be live streaming that one. Which is super cool! That’s from 5 pm – 7 pm.
On Sunday, Sept 24th, the happening is at Tomato Mouse Gallery, it will be the more full talkPOPc experience. This includes the visual artworks and text on the same topic of censorship (derived from my book Cover Up the Dirty Parts! Cambridge Scholars Press). There will also be of course the always-present talkPOPc conversation tent, with two separate philosophers – Nicholas Whittaker and myself, Dena Shottenkirk. The times are 2 pm – 6 pm.
The puppet of course makes an appearance at both events!
It would be wonderful if you could make either (or both!) of these events. Please sign up for a time on our website. We are sure you would find it both fun and rewarding.
Hope to see you!”
