Mass Culture on Hutterite Colonies."
Laryssa will be presenting on some of her MA research in South Africa,
focusing on gospel singer/HIV-AIDS activist Musa Njoko and HIV-
positive choir Siphithemba. Through their music, they aim to change
perceptions about people living with HIV/AIDS. She'll also discuss

about change.
