Rising Up: The Power of Narrative in Pursuing Racial Justice

(City Lights, 2023)

This week on CounterSpin: The stories news media tell are something different than the facts they report. The facts may say what happened where; the stories tell us who's the hero and who's the villain, how important the fight is, and whether we should care about the ending. It's not always easy to discern, but it's critical—which is why narrative has been taken up as an important tool by folks looking to change the world for the better, in part by changing the stories we tell ourselves and one another.

Sonali Kolhatkar is the host and executive producer of the daily radio and TV program Rising Up With Sonali, and the racial justice and civil liberties editor at Yes! Magazine ([link removed]) . Her new book, Rising Up: ([link removed]) The Power of Narrative in Pursuing Racial Justice, will be published this month by City Lights. She joins us this week on the show.
