When the erasure or distortion of collective memory through storytelling hijacks fact, truth, and history itself, what kind of information infrastructures can effectively confront those false narratives? Turner and Rumsey explore the tensions between history and storytelling and resulting implications for political beliefs, actions, and our collective sense of reality. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/human-centered-82455/episodes/challenging-history-erasures-to-expand-possible-futures/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/human-centered-82455/challenging-history-erasures-to-expand-possible-futures.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
