I used to teach philosophy, and every semester I'd let my students do a few "issues days." On those days, the students were required to bring in a substantive issue for us to talk about as a class. We talked about things like sexual ethics, politics, religion, civil rights, and anything else that deeply impacts our world. I haven't taught in 5 years and I miss those issues days, so I'm bringing them back. I am challenging my friends and former students to bring an issue in and talk about it with me. I know a lot of interesting, smart, funny people and it's time I shared them.
