Dehumanization on Two Wheels
This chapter features a playful yet critical discussion on dehumanization as it pertains to cyclists, sparked by a mix-up between literary figures and a controversial study regarding bicycle helmet usage. The speakers explore the absurdities of societal perceptions surrounding cyclists, particularly how attire influences attitudes and behaviors of motorists, leading to aggressive driving. Through humor and critique, they reflect on the broader implications of dehumanization in daily interactions and the need for re-humanization strategies.
