This Sunday at 6pm, join McKelvy as we dive into the history and “symbolism” of symbols and imagery within social and political movements. From caricatures to slogans to flags, symbolism is the backbone of successful movements. We’ll ask what makes a symbol stick. Is it simplicity, emotion, timing, or how easy it is to copy? We will also consider how symbols morph over time, and how a change in hands or generation can change their meaning entirely.  Please RSVP here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdv5xKS7S4N-3Vtrzi324Hv4MIDhk-fMfNBbfMttu-60E5ZTg/viewform?usp=publish-editor For more information, please contact presidents Audrey Weisenberger ‘27(weisenba@lafayette.edu) and Lillian Sampson ‘27 (sampsonl@lafayette.edu ).
