“The single story creates stereotypes, and the problem with stereotypes is not that they are untrue, but that they are incomplete. They make one story become the only story.”

For this upcoming Chat Box session, we’re honoured to have Malaika Serrano facilitate a discussion on single story narratives. This session will provide you with a chance to look both within and outwards, as we consider unconscious bias and combating stereotypes - both harmful ones that we have experienced and ones that we've unconsciously placed on others.
