PhD students Rachel Collins and Michael O'Connor are scheduled to deliver papers in this month's Negotiations Panel, Tuesday at 4pm in the English Library. Rachel's talk, titled "Metonymic Kinship: the Gardin City and Levittown Reconsidered" addresses the impulse behind the Garden City movement, and its reliance on utopian fiction. Mike O'Connor's paper, "Not Black, White, or Green: Documentary Film and the Myth of Irish Immigrant History" explores the relationship of documentary representations of "Irish-ness" in America to issues of race, class and ethnicity.
Look forward to seeing you there!
