What’s your story? Storytelling in Activism.
Through personal stories, we catch a glimpse of a view of the world that may be different from our own. When we see the world as they see it, or walk in their shoes, the experience can inspire empathy and is helpful in seeing people as individuals rather than as a homogenous group. These narratives act as an important communication tool that captures people’s attention, and provokes them to think differently about an issue and perhaps behave differently as well.
How does this relate to myself and Minority Voices? Let me tell you my story and you tell me yours.
