ComNetworkLA in partnership with SoCal Grantmakers and co-hosted by ComNetwork SF Bay Area invite you to a dialogue with Stephen Satterfield — food writer and the founder of Whetstone Magazine and host of the hit Netflix show, “High on the Hog: How African American Cuisine Transformed America.”
Stories are the most powerful and pervasive force in our society. Stories define narratives and shape our views on a variety of issues and inform how we cultivate empathy. Story shifts culture and shapes culture — and therefore has the capacity to change culture.
In our work pursuing racial justice, we have the opportunity to disrupt dominant narratives and invest in storytellers whose voices are historically silenced.
Join us to seek the narrative power of stories and explore the role of philanthropy, government, and community-based partners in supporting BIPOC storytellers and investing in infrastructure for narrative change.
This program is free and open to all; pre-registration is required via SoCal Grantmakers’ website.
