What does it mean to speak for someone else, and when do we have the right to do so? Host Jack Russell Weinstein speaks with philosopher Wendy Salkin about the ethics of speaking on behalf of others, political movements and public advocacy, and the informal ways people claim to represent communities they belong to or sometimes don’t.
