DESCRIPTION:Mutombo Mpanya: Activism & Social Change Lectures \nThrough A Western Lens: 
 Representations of the Other\n \nFridays from 7-9pm, FREE and open to the 
 public\nNew College of California\nRm 23, 766 Valencia Street, San 
 Francisco\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 \nNov. 9th: 
 Images of the Enemy\n \nNov. 16th: Images of the Indigenous Americas\n* 
 special one hour presentation from 6-7pm, to be followed by John Ross' "Eye 
 on Mexico" event from 7-9pm\nNov. 30th: Images of Africa\n \nDec. 7th: From 
 Cinema to news: Images of American Minorities\n \nDec. 14th: Images of 
 Paradise: Polynesia and Tourism\n \n\n
