Exploring ourselves and the world
through stories, both personal and collective,
in order to strengthen our activism
We take in information from the world around us through our senses and, individually and collectively, we transform that information into narrative. We turn the world around us into stories, and, by telling these stories to ourselves and one another, by relating with and through these stories, we turn the stories we tell ourselves into reality.
Stories are the everyday magic by which we are able to experience the world in a meaningful way, rather than having to deal with the data of reality in the raw. This is not a failure, but a feature. It is what allows us to be human, to create community, culture, society, and technology.
But it is also the means through which much suffering arises and is maintained. This is true from the small scale of painful personal relationships, to the large scale of violent bigotry, inter-community hatred, and systemic oppression.
Stories are how we weave together, or pull apart, our lives, our communities, and our societies. The power of that magic can be wielded consciously or unconsciously, for good or ill, for private benefit or collective upliftment.
