In this month's The Perfect 10 Big Idea Interview, Brigid Schulte, Director of New America's The Better Life Lab, and Research Fellow Haley Swenson explain how compelling stories anchored in the experiences of everyday Americans can challenge prevailing narratives around poverty and the social safety net, presenting an alternative vision for an economy and society that works for everyone. Through their work and research, they demonstrate how storytelling can be a powerful tool to foster empathy, shift cultural attitudes, and inspire action on social and economic justice issues.
