This week’s episode begins with an excerpt from one of many creative writing pieces Indira Dahlstrom has written over the years. Indira has been writing since high school and says that her love for it has only grown since coming to Whitman. In this episode, Elea and Jasmine engage in a conversation with Indira about how writing has become a practice and a form of self care and activism, as much of what she writes about is tied to identity. Jasmine, Indira, and Elea also discuss the many uses writing lends to its authors, which range from being a form of communication to also being a form of art and even a tool to make friends and feel better connected with others. Tune in this week to hear more about their discussion and Indira’s experience as a writer and artist.
