The questions surrounding what it means to be legally complicit are the same ones we may ask ourselves as we evaluate our own and others' responsibility for inherited and ongoing harms, such as racism, sexism, and climate change: What does it mean that someone \"knew\" they were contributing to wrongdoing? How much involvement must a person have in order to be complicit? At what point are we obligated to intervene?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFrancine Banner ties together pop culture, politics, law, and social movements to provide a framework for thinking about what we know intuitively: that our society is defined by crisis, risk, and the quest to root out hazards at all costs.
