This video showcases a conversation hosted by the Promising Health Practices for Health Equity podcast, hosted by the Interdisciplinary Research Leaders Program. In this short video, Luis discusses why we need to counter narratives rooted in a hierarchy of human value as much as we need to craft new stories that can move us toward new possibilities, healing, care, and justice. See the full conversation with Luis here: Season 1, Episode 2 | Storytelling for Health Equity.
