Join Fiction & Media employee Aaron Ashmann for a virtual discussion of the 2015 film "Requiem for the American Dream."
This documentary explores the concentration of wealth and power in the United States from the lens of one of our most renowned thinkers, Noam Chomsky. Ever present is his critique of neoliberalism, which is a modified form of liberalism that tends to favor free-market capitalism. Aaron from Fiction & Media will lead the discussion.
