Climate Change and Popular Culture

A special, climate-related event co-sponsored by Guernica magazine and the New York Society Library. Moderated by Guernica‘s deputy publisher, this event will feature novelists, essayists, and cultural critics in conversation about how climate change is represented in books and films; how apocalyptic/dystopic visions both galvanize and fatigue audiences; how race/gender/class and other identities inform our popular narratives about climate change; and why climate change continues to pose communication challenges to writers and artists.
