Rik's Mind Podcast Ep. 65- Eric W. Ross: What is Cultural Studies and why is it important?
Today we are joined by Eric Ross. Eric lives in Washington, DC and is a Star Trek fan, a Dungeon Master, a Taco Bell enthusiast and a PhD candidate in Cultural Studies at George Mason University. He writes about museums, and conflicts over history and memory. Since 2017, he has also been an instructor teaching intro to Social Justice classes to first year college students.
Additionally, Mr. Ross is an active member of the George Mason chapter of the Association of American University Professors (AAUP). Before graduate school, he spent two years working with Americorps in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Eric is not on social media, so don’t expect to fine him anywhere but at George Mason Univ.
