Season 2 · Episode 5 | Whose Story Gets Told - Language, Framing and Representation

In the fifth episode of Change of Perspective – Whose Story Gets Told?, we speak with Ann Aradi- Savi Noir, queer Kenyan human rights activist based in Berlin and coordinator of the “Resilient Voices” project. Together, we explore who holds the power to tell stories, why storytelling is political, and how language shapes representation. As dominant systems control narratives, often by using oppressive terms: Ann calls for reclaiming language as a tool of empowerment, while reflecting on storytelling as a collective act of resistance.
