by Origin Papers
Join the Origin Papers Team for the Paper Trails Podcast, where the OP team comes together to try to make sense of society, culture, and identity. How do you make sense of the world around you? Our identities are shaped and changed by each time we see a new way of life. Each time we learn something new or unlearn something we know, our identities change. We sometimes struggle to find ourselves within ourselves, people and in spaces. Our imaginations are powerful tools for creation, learning to love, and accept each other. You can expect fun, jokes; maybe some tears too.
