About this Event
...READS THE NEWS is a new SPACE civics exercise where community members publicly read a curated selection of news items, articles, nonfiction passages, reviews, or other material before a live audience, with musical accompaniment.
This episode of ...READS THE NEWS is facilitated by writer, and educator Nick Fuller Googins. The evening will feature musical accompaniment TBA.
SPACE's ...Reads the News program positions the humanities as essential tools for collective meaning-making in a moment of widespread information overload, political volatility, and reading burnout. At a time when the news is both difficult to engage with and impossible to ignore, this program shifts the practice of media consumption from the private to the public, allowing for critical reading, historical context, ethical reflection, and shared inquiry that help communities slow down, interpret information, and reconnect with ideas beyond the churn of the daily cycle.
Reading lists will be shared and sourced at the event.
