Ep 10: When life isn't fair

from Our Stories and Our Selves: Why the narratives we tell shape the way we think about the world

Why do some people blame the victims? Or assume that there must have been a reason that some random accident happened? How do we react when life isn't fair? In this episode we discuss the Just World Fallacy, and why some of the stories people tell themselves about the world can be harmful. Content warning: this episode discusses sexual assault, victim blaming and mentions discrimination against disabled people. source list available at https://www.ourstoriesandourselves.com/Get in touch on [email protected] or @ourstories.bsky.socialMusic from https://pixabay.com/users/good_b_music-22836301/
