DESCRIPTION:Mutombo Mpanya: Activism & Social Change Lectures - FREE!\n\nThrough A 
 Western Lens: Representations of the Other\n\nAlthough we live in a 
 “global village”, most of the information we receive about the world we 
 live in seems to be a one-way flow. US media consumers are viewing 
 themselves and cultural others through the eyes of dominant Western global 
 discourse, which deploys various forms of representation to make domestic 
 and international others “knowable”. In this series of workshops we 
 will explore forms of mainstream representation of different peoples. We 
 will investigate the roles of power relations, ideology, gender, colonial 
 histories and economics and how they contribute to the popular 
 understanding of these images. Activities will include presentations, panel 
 discussions with guest speakers, viewing images and video clips , and 
 animated group discussions. This series is sponsored by the Activism & 
 Social Change emphasis area.\n\n \n\n6 Fridays from 7-9pm\n\nNew College of
