Please join us this Friday, November 4th, from 11:00 am to 12:30 pm in Cobb 311 for our first Mass Culture Workshop.

We are excited to begin our quarter with a reading group on mass culture. For this session, we will read and discuss two short pieces, Theodore Adorno’s “Culture Industry Reconsidered” and Agnes Gayraud’s Dialectics of Pop. By juxtaposing these two works, we hope to spend the workshop considering and reflecting on the question, “What is our commitment to researching cultural industries in the 21st century?”

Joel Sutherland (CMS, Ph.D.) will lead this week’s discussion.
