Description: To many the world appears to be in a state of dangerous change. News and fictional media alike report that these are dark times and narratives of social resistance imbue many facets of Western culture. The new essays making up this collection examine different events and themes of the 2010s that readily acknowledge the struggling state of things. Crucially these essays look to the resistance and political activism of communities that seek to make long - reaching and institutional changes in the world through a diverse group of media texts. They scrutinize how a society relates to injustices and how individuals enact a desire for change. The authors analyze a broad range of works such as texts as Awake: A Dream from Standing Rock Black Panther The Death of Stalin Get Out Jessica Jones Hamilton The Shape of Water and Star Wars: The Last Jedi. By digging into these and other works as well as historic events the contributors explicate the soul - deep necessity of pushing back against injustice whether personal or cultural.
