The Games Institute Speaker Series Talk #3: Andre Brock’s “The Changing Same: Blackness, Representation and Video Games.”

This is a free, virtual event with an in-person watch party hosted at TAG and is open to all. No registration required for the TAG watch party.

Join Dr. Andre Brock on a discussion of the promise and peril of POC video game character voice acting, focusing primarily on the connections of Black male anger and Black fatherhood in God of War through the voice work of TC Carson and Christopher Judge, contextualized against the audio Brownface of two voice POC women characters in Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves.

All are welcome.  There will be donuts :).
