The Kenan Institute for Ethics is a home for faculty, students, and staff dedicated to understanding the moral challenges of our time through the energetic and capacious pursuit of good.

Thrilled to share that our upcoming Scene on Radio season, The News, is an Official Selection at the Tribeca Festival this June! The series, launching in late May, is the newest collaboration between myself (John Biewen) and the great Chenjerai Kumanyika (of Empire City, Unruly Subjects, Uncivil, SoR's Seeing White, etc), along with story editor Diane Hodson and assistant producer Arlene Arevalo.
