When we identify with a fictional character, and have a strong sense of the sorts of actions the person would take, we can ask ourselves what would the character do in these circumstances? We may then use that understanding to do brave things.

We are living in a time when we need to step forward as part of a community of courage. We need inspiration to take those steps. The stories you write could be pivotal in making this happen!

Join this Indivisible event and learn how to make empathetic and inspiring characters to help people to imagine a better and more democratic future.

Storytelling--characters who model kindness, community, and democracy...and inspire action.

Taking action can be scary. We may feel unprepared to make critical decisions. Experiencing stories through books, films, plays, graphic novels, computer games, etc, can help people to feel prepared.
