This video essay explores the focus popular media such as The Hunger Games, Star Wars, and Harry Potter place on the toppling of fascist regimes, and asks why audiences play less attention to media which covers the rise of fascist regimes.
Sinclair Lewis' novel It Can't Happen Here forma the backbone of this video, and I explore the intertextuality between Lewis' work and novels like William Golding's Lord of the Flies, Shirley Jackson's The Lottery, and more. I cover the importance of films which explore the rise of dystopian/and authoritarian settings, and what makes them essential to an informed audience and democracy.
