Ep. 13: Who gets to tell whose story?

from Getting there? · host Lisa and Maja

In this episode we approach the ethics of storytelling: At the intersection of identity politics and political correctness, the news are filled with shitstorms and controversies. How come it’s always the loudest and whitest voices that suddenly cry out for free speech? What happens to the notion of artistic freedom in contemporary arts? And from an intersectional perspective: who gets to tell whose story? References:  Anish Kapoor at the Museum of Modern Art Oxford.  Controversy around the translation of 'The Hill We Climb' by Amanda Gorman. Dana Schutz's controversial 'Open Casket' painting shown at the Whitney Biennial 2017. (Correction: 14-year old Emmett Till was lynched in 1955 Mississippi)
