 Sherman (2016) agrees with Fricker about the harm caused by testimonial injustice but questions the efficacy of trying to cultivate a virtue to correct it. The essential problem is that people tend to think that their own opinions and trust in the testimony of others are reasonable. If you thought that you’d given someone’s word too little weight, you would already have revised your opinion. In light of this, Sherman suggests that efforts to cultivate corrective testimonial justice are likely to fail or even backfire.
