Danger of a Single Story

  1. What does it mean to have a 'single story' about a place or community? That you lean on a single opinion of a place.
  2. Describe a single story you have heard told about your community. What is missing from that story? How could people learn more about that community? I have heard that Philippi schools have a lot of bad kids.  It doesn't say anything about the kids that are good.. They could take a trip there.
  3. Describe a single story you have heard about another community. How did you learn that story? How could you find out more about that community? I heard that people in Logan county and Preston county are poor. My friend lives in Preston. I could go to his house again. 
  4. How could a game let players experience many stories about a place or community? They could hear a story from both sides.
