Join us for a book talk featuring Dr. Lisa M. Stulberg, author of How to Win a Culture War: LGBTQ+ Social Change Through Pop Culture, in conversation with The New York Times journalist Trish Bendix.

In this conversation, Dr. Stulberg explores how culture workers in Hollywood, elite sports, theater, and activism are transforming American society through their contributions to arts, sports, and politics—and why pop culture provides a crucial beacon of hope during challenging political times.

Drawing on 14 years of research and 170 interviews with TV, film, and theater actors and creators, musicians, athletes, and activists, How to Win a Culture War argues that pop culture is not merely entertainment, but a primary arena where social change is forged and political progress is sustained.

Lisa M. Stulberg, PhD, is Associate Professor of Sociology of Education and Director of the Sociology of Education Program at New York University’s Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development. Her research focuses on the sociology of education, LGBTQ+ social change, and cultural politics.

When: Monday, November 16, 2026 from 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM

Where: Moore Hall, Reading Room 3340

RSVP: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc_f1Xgr2GKHKpos8qbwmz6wjlk3ugI7Oz5xyAK0J4sl5Kygg/viewform

Are you pursuing a career in the film, TV, sports, beauty, music, or tech industry? Interested in interning at companies like Disney, L'Oreal, Fox Sports, A24, or NBCUniversal?

Bruin Mentors in Entertainment is a new organization at UCLA dedicated to fostering the mentorship and professional development of students pursuing a future in entertainment. Our goal is to pair current UCLA students that have internship experience (across companies like Paramount, Elf, ESPN, Warner Bros, etc) with those who are passionate about breaking into the industry. Through internship application workshops, coffee chats, speaker panels, and other events, we hope that both mentors and mentees will be able to grow personally and professionally! If either role (mentor or mentee) sounds like you, please check us out!

We'd love to have you! Follow us on Instagram @BruinMentors for more updates or click the link below to our application form LIVE now and due on Friday, November 13th.
