Welcome to King’s Conversations, a series to ignite your thirst for understanding with some of the world’s most inspired academics.

In this first episode, Dr Ruth Adams guides us through the muddy waters of culture wars, from their historical origins to their tech-driven discussions today.

We touch on how societal views are reflected in creative media, ties between culture wars & politics, and whether art can truly be separated from a problematically perceived artist.

This episode of King’s Conversations covers:

Whether cancel culture is effective, and separating art from artists
Cultural conversations raised by the Barbie movie, from feminism to LGBTQ+ rights
How social media has progressed the polarisation of opposing stances
Governmental and political uses of culture wars
