The Internet Is (not) Forever
This week we discuss the power of storytelling as a tool for preserving history — and how that preservation is not only being undermined, but is actively under threat thanks to platform capitalism.
We talk about ‘the write side of history’ panel at Muslim Agenda, the way narratives are shaped and disseminated by mediators like news publications and streaming services, and the importance of having physical media like books at a time where Palestinian stories are being lost to the ether.
Check out Soaliha’s Substack Soaliloquy and Mitch’s Substack DIAGRAMMA.
