This video was just sent to teachers yesterday and already all of campus is buzzing about it. watch it. send it  to others. it is very compelling and you will learn about something you may have not known about that is happening in our world. Then, I want you to visit the website below. It is a criticism in response to the viral video. Remember, there is always two sides to every story...sometimes even more...

Hobo Chic

The link below is an article about a fashion movement you may even be participating in and don't even know it, called Hobo Chic. Read the article, look at the pictures and maybe look at some other images of this fashion style. What is your aesthetic response? Do you like it or not? Why? What is the purpose of the movement? Do you feel there is anything contreversial about the movement? Why or Why not? How does/ can fashion function as art?
