Why watch the Star Wars trilogies? Are they simply escapist entertainment? Or are they repositories for cultural meaning, offering poignant commentary on our culture's treatment of spirituality, economics, politics, identity, gender, ethnicity, etc.? Please join the Fantastic Literature and Arts Collective (FLAC) and the Science Fiction and Fantasy Club for a lively and engaging roundtable discussion that will explore these and other questions about the relationship between Star Wars and culture.
