    1. Cultural Narratives

    How do we construct and deconstruct the stories that surround us and direct us in everyday life? Ewa Marcinek and Anna Wojtyńska describe how cultural narratives explain the lives we live and create our image of the world. They discuss the importance of storytelling in understanding and negotiating the meaning of our shared realities. Ewa proposes gossip as an effective negotiation strategy in countering master narratives. Music: Mt Fox Shop by BoxCat Games https://boxcat.bandcamp.com (CC BY).

    2. Structural Racism and Privilege

    Does everyone have a racial identity? Chanel Björk Sturludóttir discusses the impact of structural racism on society and the importance of mirroring oneself in one's environment. She talks about whiteness as a subtle norm that is almost unrecognizable in everyday life. Experiences of others automatically become insignificant, if they don’t conform to this norm. Any talk of a post-racial society, where everyone is "colorblind", would silence experiences of being othered. Chanel shares her critical thinking on race as a social construct as well as her encounters with structural racism in Iceland, a force which transcends both the good or bad intentions of individuals.

    3. Belonging and Institutional Power Structures

    How do we make the Icelandic cultural scene more inclusive? Who’s bodies are not seen in cultural spaces and who’s voices are not being heard? Daría Sól Andrews and Helen Cova discuss representation within cultural institutions and the lack of diversity. Critical questions are not an attempt to shame or attack institutions. They are a necessary process towards a more equitable allocation of resources and power.
