The Afterword: A Conversation About the Future of Words


Jun 15, 2019

If we rely on a single story without giving access to the stories of others, we can create silos of isolation as individuals or as a culture. But through the diverse influences of others, we can develop a tapestry of community that is beautiful and richly woven. This month is Immigrant Heritage month- how appropriate to have this episode about crossing borders on The Afterword!

Mitali Perkins shares resources on her website about how to use the power of  story to explore the idea of neighbors & hospitality so that strangers become part of our community. Samuel Parker uses the metaphor of jazz to help us understand the significance of border crossing stories.
