My Story

Next

It is important to start a conversation about the power of our own narrative (storytelling), of social narratives, and how they hold us in their grip and guide society subtly but strongly towards a status quo. We rethink our jobs, our way of life, our family concept, how we value each other and how we value ourselves.

Unit 14.5: Discover Ourselves through Storytelling, Build Community, Change the Narrative

We are open to seeing differences as strengths, as opportunities for development. We talk more openly about who we really are and about the struggles we all face with our sense of worth, dignity, and how we look in the world.

Next

The storytelling method supports the creation of an open and diverse community of people actively involved in the daily practice of learning and growing individually, in relation to each other within a socially equitable community. In essence, every day we seek to combine the work of social justice with community building, to have fun and to develop ourselves.

Next

We see the concept of "individual" and "collective" as parts of a “WHOLE” to each other if we are to make progress.
