Kevin Burke edited the blog post Epidemic, Microbes, and Consent in Clay’s Ark in the group American Studies: 8 years, 9 months ago

This is somewhat tangential, and focuses mainly on Clay’s Ark, but it’s something I had been thinking of as we spoke in class about Clay’s Ark, and something that Brendan’s post makes me question even more. It seems that the class largely came to the decision that Blake’s goal to get to a hospital and find a cure to the infection is misguided…[Read more]
