Writing at the Limits of Narrative: A Panel on Climate Change

What is the role of storytelling in climate crisis? Can new stories build new realities, or can storytelling itself distract from the more prosaic difficulties of policymaking and activism?

Join us for a panel discussion on the role–and limits–of narrative in a changing climate, with three storytellers working at the intersection of writing and activism: New York Times best-selling author Jeff VanderMeer, feminist science studies scholar and professor of women and gender studies at Wellesley College Banu Subramaniam, and Grist climate fiction creative manager Tory Stephens.
