Abstract
The combination of English letters that spells "cancel culture" is common and divisive. More people now say they are aware of this phrase, but its meaning, implication, and impact are still heavily debated. In this paper, I revisit cancel culture and discuss its impacts. I end this paper by urging application of cancel culture that reflect its root meaning and function, critical self-reflection, and restorative conversations if we are to make meaningful progress with cancel culture.
