  • Summary

  • Season 2 has arrived! In these strange and uncertain times we’ve found ourselves turning to the alternate realities and projections of our future through Dystopian fiction. How can we frame our existence by examining the hypothetical extremes in which our world could go? Should we be afraid or is there hope? We’ve brought PhD candidate Kate in as a guest to discuss the influences of Dystopia and Utopia upon activist movements in the modern world. Together, we look at the ideas explored by writers like Ursula K. Le Guin, Octavia Butler and Margaret Atwood.
