Sew-cial Activism Costume Photos
Here's something different: costumes. Last semester, the Tufts Drama and Dance Department offered a class called "Sew-cial Activism," where students studied costuming as a form of political statement and made their own political costumes.

I was going to look at economic inequality by comparing Manchester-by-the-Sea, the wealthiest town in the North Shore, to Lynn, the poorest. That didn’t work out, but I wound up with some nice landscapes. Click the thumbnails for a better view. …
