False Consciousness

Students took control of the lab this morning when some kids decided to accompany Katherine to the Chilton Hall computer lab, while the other half stayed with Dr. Robinson to work on blocks. But the Critical Theory lab came together tonight to finish the blocks that were started. Laura De La Cruz helped the students prep out against a Marxist affirmative on the condition that everyone understood she did not believe anything she was saying. Her “soul cried” as she listed three reasons why Marxism was wrong. Sparks flew as the blocking exercise devolved into a full blown debate. Ms. De La Cruz held her own against such ardent capitalists as Danielle. In the end, no convictions were changed, but perhaps minds were open.
