This talk features the work of Carnegie Mellon University's 2012-2013 Humanities Center Senior Research Fellow, Leshu Torchin.
She will be discussing the ways in which films about the global economy have been contributing to the growing discourse of economic justice. Some of these films, Torchin will argue, can be used to advance the otherwise marginalized set of economic, social and cultural rights that are a part of the Human Rights Charter.
This program will be held in the university's Porter Hall. For more information, call (412) 268 2212.
