Chris Cartright, MFA, Lecturer of English at Georgia Southern University (Armstrong Campus) will examine our media landscape and the competing political ideologies of our era. Using a few familiar examples will look at how contemporary media cultivates cultural attitudes, whether we know it or not. Critical engagement with popular culture–reflecting on media texts in their real social context–can help us better advocate for the cultural values that matter to us.
.
The lecture format will consist of one hour of lecture followed by 30 minutes of comment, question, and answer from the audience. Admission is free to the general public.
