Single Stories

1. What does it mean to have a "single story" about a place or community?
It means you only think of that place through what you have already heard about it, no matter if it is a stereotype or not.

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?
People always say that Philippi is a small, deserted, lonely town, but what thy don't know is, we are bigger than what we look, and full of life.

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 have heard that Grafton is a mean, snobby town where everyone is stuck up. I heard about this from my brother, and I could learn more by visiting there.

4. How could a game let players experience many stories about a place or community?
It could show them what it looks like and how a native sees it.
