This Monday, November 5! 2:00 - 3:30 pm The Sheindlin Forum Wallis Annenberg Hall (ANN) 106... Greenwashing Culture & Sport We often think of the culture industries as green, certainly in comparison with the extractive or manufacturing sectors. But culture is integral to what Professor Toby Miller has termed "greenwashing" and to ecological destruction through both the sponsorship of culture by major polluters and the pollution generated by the culture and sport industries themselves. Various responses to this situation present themselves: boycotts, disruption, shareholder activism, regulation, and so on. Miller explores how these might play out if implemented. Professor Toby Miller is one of the world's leading Cultural Studies scholars and theorists. He is currently a research professor of the graduate division, University of California, Riverside and president of the Cultural Studies Association. His most recent books include Greenwashing Culture, Greenwashing Sport, and Global Media Studies. This event is co-sponsored by USC Sustainability , USC Sociology , USC American Studies & Ethnicity , USC Wrigley Institute for Environmental Studies , USC School of Cinematic Arts , USC Center on Public Diplomacy , and us, Annenberg Innovation Lab!

The fine folks at ARNIC and SLAB: the Spatial Analysis Lab have just released a policy brief on the state of broadband competition in LA County - among the findings: - The number of LA residents not served by broadband more than doubled from about 43,000 in 2015 to about 87,000 in 2016. Although this still represents a small minority of less than 1%, the trend raises concern about a deceleration in the expansion of broadband services across LA County. - The ...share of LA residents with at least two broadband options increased from 30.3% in 2015 to 52.8% in 2016. However, this has mostly benefited higher-income areas, and has largely bypassed Latino residents. - Investments in fiber-based services have stalled in LA County, with a small net loss of about 33,000 served residents in 2016.
