Get ready for the third and final Hunger Games episode. Courtney and Jennifer have already compared Panem to America, President Snow to Netanyahu/Trump, and now it's time to draw some parallels between President Snow and AOC…Yes, they went there.

Using The Mockingjay (Book 3 of Suzanne Collins’ YA dystopia) as a lens, they explore performative leadership and the complicated dynamics of rebellion by trying to make sense of AOC's most recent vote in favor of defensive military aid to Israel. Do today's "disruptive" political figures mirror the Capitol’s tactics more than they’d like to admit?
