Abstract
:
Subtle criticism of today's activism versus the 1980s starring the Act Up Movement fighting the AIDS pandemic. This is a mockumentary of life for a college student surviving the social unrest of the chaos witnessed during 2020. Also includes works from Neuromancer by William Gibson and The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood as well as French philosopher Jean Baudrillard to capture my newly transformed brain after this taking PHIL 273 in the SYRCE Program.
