In Defense of a Simple Narrative: Matthew Shepard | Chanel Miller
Update: 2020-05-29
Description
A witness in a courtroom swears to tell not just the truth, but the whole truth. In other parts of life, however, we get to be selective in the elements of a story we share. When we look for dualities in the real world, we are faced with complex stories. But are there times when a simple narrative is better? Using the stories of Matthew Shepard and Chanel Miller, we discuss how introducing confounding details both creates a nuanced understanding of an event and runs the risk of undermining its power.
