2012 MIDWEST POPULAR CULTURE/AMERICAN CULTURE ASSOCIATION

Submission Guidelines:

History and popular culture often seem entwined, whether this tie is developed by investigating history as it is portrayed in film, television, or literature or in the way cities (like Columbus) grow and prosper over time. Both History and Popular Culture are foundational influences on the way people think, develop a world view, and contextualize their surroundings.
