Reel Talk is one part social group, one part writing class, with a heavy dose of examination and parallel thinking techniques thrown in. In this ongoing class, we'll have some fun ripping apart the stories, songs, games, and art we love and hate. This is so we can learn to understand an artist's choices, which will help us separate problematic and harmful elements from the stories we want to love. We'll then take that energy and focus on creating something for ourselves.

Topics will range to encompass all races and cultures as we dive into the good and the bad when it comes to representation as well as brainstorm ideas to what can be done better. 

This is an ongoing class and every week we'll have a different topic that will lead us into that day's conversation. These topics can range anything from examining a piece of art or pop culture, to discussing tropes, and current events in the world of entertainment. 

This will be a focus, but the overall goal of the class remains simple, to make new friends and learn what makes stories so powerful.
