In our contemporary moment, we have become accustomed to terms such as âcounter-terrorismâ that signal an effort to resist internal and external threats, and those suggesting that we live in an age of âpost-truthâ dominated by âcorporate-media,â âfake news,â and âfact-challengedâ journalism. Additionally, we regularly encounter a range of media practices and discourse that evoke war and violence.
Please join us for a mini-conference of undergraduate research aimed at tracking, evaluating, and theorizing contemporary or historical media that situate gender and sexuality within a so-called âmedia war,â or in their construction and dissemination of âtruthâ and/or resistance.
The symposium is open to the public and will feature student presentations and discussion of the original research they have developed throughout the fall quarter. The event will be followed by a reception in the lobby. We hope you can join us for this fun and celebratory event. Reception to follow.
Part of the Counter Cinema/Counter Media Project of the CSGS.
