Academy Award nominee Morgan Spurlock, famous for his documentary Super Size Me, has launched a new television series called 30 Days which explores the various life-changing experiences that are possible in a 30-day period. From working in a coal mine to eating only fast food, Spurlock takes us to the extremes of life in America, investigating some of the most pressing issues within our modern society. Following the screening we will explore some of the issues associated with our modern world, and will specifically focus on the issues affecting and influencing the American way of life. We will also discuss ways in which we can work to create healthy and sustainable communities within the city of Richmond as well as in
the nation at large.
