In June and July 2021, Cultural Agents launched the Pre-Texts Harvard College Summer Internship Program. Ten talented undergraduates partnered with eight organizations around the world. After training as Pre-Texts facilitators, interns pursued: film making in the Bahamas, children’s reading clubs in Mexico, English with lawyers in Paraguay, high school teaching in Germany, curriculum design in China, mental health in Kenya, and teen to tot development in Boston. Engaged by the pandemic, we riffed on Michel Foucault’s plague from Discipline & Punish.
