Situationist International

SORRY I'M SO LATE IN DOING THIS.

For my SOCI/GSFS class about social protest, I was assigned to write on the "French Protest Posters of May '68" that are currently on display in the AMAM. After Arzu mentioned Situationist International in class the other day I decided to tie them and their theories into my paper.  I posted the content of my paper below.  Read as much or as little as you like.  Ultimately, I think artists like Sharon Hayes who combine activism and performance are closest to the truest definition of Artist.

Tappan Square Walking Tour

Liz Schultz from the Oberlin Heritage Center gave the tour. She talked about the prominent buildings around the square, the founding of Oberlin, women's history, African American history, abolition, health movements, and the college.
