12:45Now PlayingI turned my latest piece, "There's More to the Story" into a video essay.
In this video, I'll be discussing the notion of "Narratives" by focusing on movie-icon Will Smith, and blues musician/activist, Daryl Davis.
In the past decade, we've heard the word "Narrative" ambiguously thrown around in culture. The idea of "Narrative" is often adversely described as "a belief" that represents a political party, social movement, or a specific group. However, "narrative" itself is not a negative device. It's the library of our experiences, our childhoods, and the pivotal moments we've managed to live through. The prose of our character makes us beautiful, ugly, and good, and complicated human beings.
But there's a difference between "our narrative" and a manufactured one - -"The Narrative."
