Aflevering The Beauty Bias | Lecture By Philosopher Francesca Minerva

So-called “ugly” persons and persons with facial difference for example, are being discriminated against. We rack our brains on questions of discrimination on the basis of race, gender or sexual preference, but people whose appearance may be considered unattractive are discriminated against at least as often. Is ‘lookism’ – discrimination on the basis of attractiveness – morally problematic? And if so, why are we doing so little about it? Listen to Italian philosopher Francesca Minerva on the beauty bias and the need to address this form of discrimination. This is a program of Radboud Reflects and Radboud Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Office.
