On Campus Event: TODAY!

Join the Lealtad-Suzuki Center for the first Tapas Discussion of the Year!

THE TAPAS SERIES: "Media Representations in the Presidential Election
(a joint collaboration with Xpressions)

Tuesday, September 30
4:30-6:00PM
Cultural House (37 Macalester Street)

Recent discussions about the current presidential election have raised
important questions of identity and authenticity. Tapas and Xpressions
invite you to join us to discuss the representation of presidential
candidates through the framework of political cartoons. We will explore
questions of audience, context and representation in the depiction of
presidential nominees John McCain and Barack Obama in our media, our
discourse and in our minds.

The Tapas Series is a monthly student-facilitated conversation highlighting
different issues around multiculturalism and diversity that are pertinent to
the Macalester community. Everyone is Welcome, and tapas will be provided.
We hope to see you there!
Keren Yohannes and Angela Gutierrez
Lealtad-Suzuki Student Assistants
