Games and Culture: Propaganda, Identity, and Activism.

Games are never neutral—they’ve always been a means to narrate, educate, and, at times, manipulate. From games that tell history, to those used for propaganda, and modern-day experiences that amplify marginalized voices, we’ll explore how games can become tools of political expression and resistance—used to tell one’s own story and imagine new worlds. A journey through past and present to understand the cultural power of games.
