. Camilla Fojas uses representations of people of color, the incarcerated, and trans/queersvulnerable populations allto work through the contradictions created by the economic crisis and its freefalling aftermath. Television, film, advertising, and media coverage of the crisis created a distinct kind of story about capitalism and the violence that supports it.
