January 28: My Best Lecture: Adolfo Soberanis
Wednesday, January 28
5:15 - 6:30pm
Veterans Memorial Building (1425 J Street, Arcata)
Native American Studies Lecturer Adolfo Soberanis will present (Re)imagining (Real)ity, a lecture exploring the complexities of our imaginations and their relationship to both the “natural” and “unnatural” worlds. To remedy our cultural state of cognitive dissonance, Soberanis argues, we can use the parenthetical prefix “re-“; however, not without consequences. Soberanis invites us to (re)imagine life outside the parentheses!
The event is free and open to the public.
Light snacks and a cash bar will be available.
