Jonathan Safran Foer Materials

Some quick information for those interested in listening to Foer’s talk at 1:30 tomorrow. If you have not yet discussed this with your fifth hour teacher, I recommend writing an apologetic note asking for any material you may miss. It is up to your teacher whether you may attend. As this is short notice, it may be impossible, but you are welcome to go to the talk he will give tomorrow night at Congregation B’nai Emunah at 7.

From The New Yorker: 20 Under 40: Jonathan Safran Foer

From The New York Times: “Against Meat,” an article adapted from his newest book, Eating Animals.

From PopMatters, a review of Eating Animals. ((Thanks, Shadi))

Please read over the materials in preparation for the talk if you would like to attend. (Actually, read over the second article anyway—it is worth your time.) We’ll discuss them in class tomorrow.

Ebert & Video Games

We will continue our discussion of Roger Ebert’s argument tomorrow if time permits. The article we are discussing is here, and a followup, “Okay, kids, play on my lawn” is here.

Kellee Santiago’s talk is below.
