Does Canceling People Actually Change Them?
Season 6
Episode 8
Cancel culture has made headlines a bunch in recent years, but when students start canceling each other does it go too far? Students usually aren’t big-name celebrities, so when they cancel each other it’s usually about taking personal conflicts onto a public platform. That can have lasting impacts on both the accuser and the accused. Co-produced with Common Sense Education.
