Why do people subscribe to crazy conspiracy theories, distrust the government and refuse to get vaccinated against deadly diseases? What could possibly lead American citizens to attack the U.S. Capitol?
Milk & Catfish
is an allegory of modern America that uses humor and satire to address these serious questions.
Before social media, conspiracy theories were spread by word of mouth. In 1980, a group of retired men concocted a harmless deer-hunting story to demonstrate the dangers of false rumors. When their scheme backfired, it had a profound impact on their small southern town and eventually invoked action by corrupt politicians, greedy executives, a retired midget wrestler, and a glamorous television reporter. Along the way, a retail store decided to replace paper bags with plastic sacks, and animal rights activists and an Indian tribe tried to cancel deer season altogether.
takes aim at social media, special interest groups and capitalism. It is an inspiring tale about the trivial issues that have historically created divisions in America. Nobody who reads
would ever want to storm the U.S. Capitol. Nobody.
