What the Enlightenment a net positive or a net negative? Or is that the wrong question, and should we look at it simply as a historical period?
Join Professor of History Aviva Chomsky as she dissects one of the most important periods in modern history from the lens of a critical historian. The Enlightenment was not just a period that produced thoughts and ideas - it was an excuse and a reordering of world hierarchies.
