Storytelling is an art that allows us to see the world through someone else's eyes and acts as a record to prevent historical revisionism. In this episode, we're joined by Smajo and Emlyn to talk about how storytelling can rehumanise the rhetoric surrounding refugees and raise awareness about the Bosnian Genocide by placing the narrative where it belongs, with the people themselves.
