Sitting in his 10th grade English class, Columbus resident Demarius Donelson watched a Tik Tok titled “the danger of a single story.”
The short video on the social media platform highlighted the dangers of forming a single narrative about a single place or group of people. After watching the clip, Donelson’s class had a discussion with Columbus High English teacher Colleen Keefe about the stereotypes the students had encountered in their lives. The conversation quickly turned into an assignment.
