PUBLIC EVENT
Humanities, Cultural History, and the Future of California
Major changes in the environment, population, and infrastructure of California raise important questions about the state's direction. In this talk, you'll hear historical perspectives on California's so-called golden period in the 1950s-60s, reflect on boom-and-bust as well as its present sense of self. Finally, you'll explore what cultural studies might tell us about the state's future.
