Reflect, Act, Repeat. How Cycles of Inquiry Help Us Challenge Dominant Narratives

Mapmaking? Birdwatching? Political activism? Dr. Sue Woehrlin sees in each of these activities the importance of narrative—and she teaches her students to see and master these narratives. Stories are the way we make sense of the world, so it’s important for us to understand the stories of our cultures, our communities, and ourselves. Dr. Woehrlin joins the Seed Field Podcast for the final episode of our first season to discuss ways of studying and questioning the stories around us. Through a fascinating conversation about maps, birds, and narrative, we explore ways that changemakers can take back control of the stories being told, reimagining the world, and work to make it more just.
