Abstract
The Gettysburg Anti-Capitalist Collective, also known as GACC, is a recent yet active addition to the campus community. Through their participation in debates, weekly meetings, and organization of events (most notably Wednesday night’s concert featuring political activists Evan Greer and Anne Feeney), GACC provides a forum for discussing and learning about leftist politics. On a campus that many would describe as highly conservative, GACC and its members are nothing short of fearless. [excerpt]
