Tell Me A Story; an introduction to Season 2
Memory's misuse in storytelling
I made a second season because I wondered - why, if the recovered memory movement is over, do so many people still believe in repressed memories?
Season 2 is for you if:
-you love books, movies or otherwise escaping into a story
-you think about memory and forgetting
-you think about why we think about what we think about...
-you liked Season 1
-you like learning about debunked beliefs.
Please join me, won't you, once again, in The Memory Hole.
