Trump’s inauguration is Jan. 20, and our
community will have to learn how to handle
“Trumpism” as the official position of the Unit-
ed States. How better to prepare than to figure
out just what the hell Trumpism is?
“Trumpism and Ethics” is a public forum
planned by concerned citizen Michael Hejazi.
He wants the community to discuss the dis-
tinction between Trump the human being and
Trumpism as a cultural and political phenome-
non. “This is not and anti-Trump event,” Hejazi
says. “People who give a shit are going to come
together for an event where we will discuss
what ethics means in a Trump presidency.”
The makeshift panel will include a represen-
tative from the Eugene Islamic Center, local
psychologists and a chair of the Democratic
Party of Oregon. “We want this to be an open
dialogue about what is a very confounding
situation,” Hejazi says. The goal of the forum is
to define Trumpism, what he calls “a new class
of political leadership which is very hopeful
to some extent but has a dark and dangerous
undertone,” and discuss its effect on ethics.
Members of the public who attend are each
given 5 minutes to present their ideas and
concerns.
Trumpism and Ethics — a public discussion
about the role of ethics in a Trump era starts
2 pm Sunday, Jan. 15 at the Eugene Public
Library in the Singer Room. — Kelly Kenoyer
