Associate Professor at Indiana University’s Media School, Joan Hawkins, is helping organize a conference and festival marking the 50th anniversary of a landmark, revolutionary year in global history. Titled “Wounded Galaxies 1968: Paris, Prague, Chicago,” the conference runs from February 6th through the 11th on the IU campus and at various venues throughout Bloomington. A pre-conference festival begins with a showing of the horror film, “Night of the Living Dead,” on Thursday, February 8th, at the IU Cinema. Joan speaks with WFHB’s Michael Glab about the “taste politics” behind the film for the latest edition of Big Talk.
