Siona Peterous: On OwnYourStories, the personal & political, intersectionality, and the fallacy of objectivity

On this episode, Alexandra speaks with Siona Peterous, freelance podcaster and co-host and co-creator of the podcast OwnYourStories which investigates the intersection of the personal and political through the stories we tell. Siona shares about how her family culture inspired her interest in politics and why her family's liberation story was central to that influence. Alexandra and Siona also discuss the fallacy of objectivity and how it functions in a white supremacist and patriarchal society; they also talk about intersectionality, the way it impacts how to ask questions, and the changes in store for OwnYourStories.
