Smaller Narratives for a Larger World is an interdisciplinary public humanities and social sciences podcast organized by graduate students and faculty members at Binghamton University, State University of New York. The current series of SNLW investigates how the human story, the myths of humanity, have shaped who we believe we are as a species. Through different academic lenses, we explore solutions to today’s problems by seeking to understand how the stories we tell about each other may create the very social problems we seek to solve.
