Rewriting the World Through Radical Imagination

 

Join author Jeanette Winterson for a powerful talk on how storytelling can spark social change. Through myth, memoir, and radical imagination, she explores how reclaiming our narratives can reshape identity, challenge injustice, and rewrite the future. 

Jeanette Winterson invites us to consider storytelling as a revolutionary act. In this bold and poetic talk, she explores how literature, identity, and myth can challenge oppressive systems and ignite social change. Drawing on her own journey - from Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit to Frankissstein - Winterson reflects on queerness, feminism, and the power of language to reshape reality.

She argues that in an age of political turbulence and technological disruption, our greatest hope lies in reclaiming narrative: telling the truths we were taught to hide, imagining futures we were told were impossible, and refusing to be written out of history.
